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.
