UNDER SIEGE
A ruthless killer is targeting the families of soldiers in a U.S. Army colonel’s brigade. Special agent Jamison Steele, of the Criminal Investigation Division, vows to stop him—because this time, Jamison’s heart is involved. The colonel’s daughter, the woman who loved and left Jamison without a word, came face-to-face with the murderer. Protecting Michele Logan means constant surveillance. And solving the mystery of the serial killer’s motive requires asking Michele the questions she least wants to answer. Questions that may lead them both into a deadly trap.
Jamison pulled a small notebook and U.S. Army pen from his coat pocket and kept his face impassive as he thought of questions that begged to be answered.
Why’d you leave me, Michele? What happened that made you run away?
Shoving them aside, he asked, “Did you see anything out of place, Miss Logan, before you noticed the body?”
“Miss Logan?” She narrowed her gaze. Evidently she didn’t understand his decision to forgo first names.
No matter how alluring Michele might be, Jamison needed to remain professional but aloof and firmly grounded in the present.
“The room was dark...the smell of blood. I—I saw Yolanda,” she said.
“What happened next?”
“Someone shoved me into the couch.”
Jamison tensed. His mouth went dry. He swallowed, knowing all too well what the killer could have done to Michele. “Can...can you describe the person?”
She shook her head. “He struck me from behind. I never saw him, Agent Steele.”
Jamison almost smiled at her attempt to play hardball. Evidently she didn’t realize he’d built a wall around his heart and added armor for protection.

Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man
who built his house on the rock. The rain
came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.
—Matthew 7:24, 25
