      DANGEROUS INHERITANCE

      When Carrie York arrives at the house she inherited from her father in an Amish community, she’s shocked to discover a soldier’s body on the property. Her neighbor, army special agent Tyler Zimmerman, starts investigating the murder, and Carrie fears it’s related to her father’s mysterious death. Tyler doesn’t trust the pretty speechwriter or the suspicious timing of her arrival—especially since her boss is responsible for his father’s death. But when someone attacks Carrie, Tyler insists on protecting her. With his help, will Carrie be able to hold on to her inheritance and her life?

      Clunk-clunk-clunk.

      Startled by the sound, Carrie gripped the steering wheel of her car even more tightly as she drove through the rain. The car suddenly veered left, crossed the center line and crashed into the ditch that edged the roadway.

      Rain pelted the windshield. She struggled to free herself and clawed at the door, unable to push it open.

      “Help!” she cried, knowing no one would hear her.

      “Carrie!”

      Tyler! He grabbed the door handle and ripped it open. Reaching around her, he unbuckled her seat belt.

      “Are you all right?”

      She nodded. He pulled her free.

      Rain pummeled her face as she looked into eyes filled with concern.

      She swallowed down the fear and nodded. “I…I’m okay. How—”

      He turned to study her car, then glanced back to where the wheel lay on the edge of the roadway. Retrieving the tire, he pried off the hubcap. “Three of your lug nuts are missing.”

      Her ears roared, and she shivered in the chilly rain.

      “Someone tampered with your wheel, Carrie,” he said, his voice deathly calm. “They wanted the tire to fall off.”

      Bailey’s plaintive howl snapped Carrie York awake with a start. The Irish setter had whined at the door earlier. After letting him out, she must have fallen back to sleep.

      Raking her hand through her hair, Carrie rose from the guest room bed and peered out the window into the night. Streams of moonlight cascaded over the field behind her father’s house and draped the freestanding kitchen house, barn and chicken coop in shadows. In the distance, she spotted the dog, seemingly agitated as he sniffed at something hidden in the tall grass.

      “Hush,” she moaned as his wail continued. The neighbors on each side of her father’s property—one Amish, the other a military guy from nearby Fort Rickman—wouldn’t appreciate
