Blind Betrayal by Nancy Mehl

Deputy U.S. Marshal Casey Sloane has worked at the St. Louis marshals office for two years and is given a routine assignment to help transport a reporter to D.C. to testify before a grand jury. Valerie, the reporter, was writing a story about an up-and-coming environmentalist who suddenly disappeared and, she later discovered, whose backers purportedly have ties to a terrorist.

When the seemingly ordinary assignment suddenly takes a shocking turn, Casey is forced to put aside her own feelings about the unexpected reappearance of a man from her past as she and two other marshals take Valerie on the run. And as it becomes dangerously clear Valerie's testimony has even bigger implications than they knew, they'll do whatever it takes to make it out alive.

Casey will do anything to protect her witness.  Even protect them with her life.  That is precisely what she is called to do on this case.  What she doesn't count on is E.J. showing up to assist.  She met E. J. while working in the D. C. office.  She also doesn't count on terrorists coming after her and doing everything they can to stop her and E. J. from getting the witness to testify. 

I was up quite late several nights reading this book.  I couldn't seem to put it down.

I recommend this book to all who like high suspense.

I was given this book by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in anyway.
