5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful! Very highly recommended, August 20, 2003

With her past firmly left behind, prominent attorney Maya Velaquez hopes to become a judge. But Houston's dark winter days bring memories of a man who lived and died in shadows, and of the son she birthed and grieved in another lifetime. Maya learned well that life promises no guarantees. Still, she never expected the brother of the man she once loved to show up in her office.

Columbian Shepard Reyes never knew about his brother's child, or the possibility that it yet lived. When one of his workers shares the truth, after eighteen years of silence, repaying a debt of honor, he greets the news with disbelief. Shepard certainly never expected to seek out his leftist guerilla brother's lover. But with the possibility of an heir to the family emerald mines, Shepard feels compelled to seek the truth. Soon both Maya and Shepard are drawn into a compelling world of danger, intrigue and love.

With her tantalizingly soul searing style, author Kay David once again presents a tale impossible to put down in THE SEARCHERS. Maya and Shepard confront the present with explosive consequences, in a page turning story impossible to put down. Maya's intriguing past and her current life reveal a woman who developed strong ethics and a profound sense of responsibility. Shepard's willingness to seek the truth, regardless of the consequences, provides exactly the strong hero that this heroine deserves. Maya's pain over her lost child and her hope that he yet lives will touch reader's hearts profoundly. THE SEARCHERS comes very highly recommended.

Maya needs to search for her son whom she thought was dead.

Shepard Reyes wants to find out the truth of the woman, girl friend of his brother, a rebel and possible mother of his brother's child.

Complications arose when Maya is introduced to Shepard's family. His brother, Javier is dangerous, his sister, Luisa is determined to have the family company for her son. And Eduard is determined to rule his family.

Maya has many lies and deceits to sift through before she learns the truth of the Reyes family and her son. And Shepard finds the truth confounding and and liberating.

Nor will Maya let Shepard take the baby away from her or back to his country.

This an excellently written and intriguing story with action and mystery enought to keep you interested well beyond the finish. Doggone why do they end?

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED -- M Another keeper!
