Forgotten Witness

Book excerpt: Appearing before the Senate Select Committee, Josie Bates testifies passionately about the circumstances that sent Hannah into hiding. While a powerful Senator promises his patronage, Josie isn’t convinced he was even listening – but someone is. Charging through the crush of bodies, a frantic man launches himself at Josie, topples her to the ground, and whispers five words that will send her from the icy winter of Washington, D.C. to the tropical warmth of Hawaii in search of her ward. What Josie finds is a horrific, long buried truth that will change her life forever - if she stays alive long enough to live it.
