This book is dedicated to the missions ministry of First Baptist North Mobile. Keep on serving and sharing the Good News!
I'm grateful for my critique partners---Scott, Tammy and Sheri---and my editor, Diane Dietz. You make me a better writer.
Thanks as well to several people who lent their expertise as I researched details for this book. Glenda Perkins, teacher of hearing impaired students in Mobile County Public Schools, read the manuscript and gave great suggestions. ATF agent and former Border Patrol Agent Michael Knoll answered about a million questions with great patience and clarity. Cena Goff helped with nursing issues, and Ken Foster---firefighter extraordinaire---answered questions regarding, well, fires. Susan Howell answered a couple of horse questions. All mistakes are mine.
My friend and fellow author Jane Myers Perrine helped once more with Spanish translation. Thanks for your time, senora.
I would never have been able to give this book the richness of detail it deserved, without observing and interviewing several of God's choice servants who minister on the Texas/Mexico border. Rosie, Aurora, Pastor Pablo, Dennis, Terry and others involved with Texas River Ministries---I pray for you regularly. Thank you for letting me share Christ in your corner of the world.

This story is about border patrol agent Eli Carmichael. He finds a deaf child hiding outside a Mexican orphanage. She is carrying a bloody knife and is clearly scared. Eli asks Isabel Valenzuela to help him out by taking in the child and trying to get her to communicate with her what she has seen. Isabel is a fellow agent's widow who is trying to raise her young son. With Eli and Isabel working to closely together the attraction is obvious. The man who wants the child silenced is getting close and the action and suspense heats up. I thoroughly enjoyed all the action and suspense and romance. (
