Red Flags (inbunden, eng)

Rebecca is now half of a Washington power couple, and she and her wealthy lobbyist husband, Hunter, have been living a charmed life in an opulent mansion—until their infant son is taken.

But in this case, discovering where those traces lead quickly becomes a dangerous journey through a web of greed and deadly ambition.
