She needs to bring a priceless artifact to be authenticated by a recluse. Men are out to steal it and kill her. She‘s in the forest alone - until her stowaway daughter shows up. This is part of a series, but can be read alone (my mom did that 🤣) I enjoyed the suspense and drama of being on the run. I‘m used to Dodd romance, but that is secondary in this series to the suspense. A great book!
