Clair Simmons owns a B&B in an old Victorian home cohabitated by an English ghost and an attack cat. The sleepy southern town she grew up in is changing rapidly. It seems everyone has found out what a great place it is, even migrants escaping cartel terror in South America. When two busloads of asylum seekers arrive in Kingston, Clair is asked to house a widow and son. Her dull life is suddenly turned upside down when she finds herself in the middle of a bidding war between two local Hispanic teenaged gangs.
Whichever gang finds the "ledger" gains admittance in the MS-13 cartel. Unfortunately, that "ledger" is her renter, Raisa Cortez, her undocumented guest with a photographic memory. Justin McCloud is an undercover cop and a hunter of men. His prey is the evil that follows the migrants-the gangs. He finds himself suddenly thrown into the nightmare all single parents fear, the lack of safe and reliable childcare.
He frantically looks over his options and settles on returning home to Kingston. Clair will provide for him and Scarlett. Except, there's one little problem to be overcome. He jilted her at the altar twelve years ago when he panicked and bolted. With the future of the town and many lives at stake, the onus is on Justin and Clair to overcome the past and work with the CIA and the local police to stop the cartels before evil develops a foothold in Kingston.
