The Negotiator (30 page)

Dear Reader,

Thank you for reading this book; it was such a pleasure to write. I fell in love with Kate O’ Malley. After spending time with Dave in Danger in the Shadows, I knew he was one of the few people who could handle Kate! They have a bright future together.

A cop is driven by a need for justice. I was curious to find out which would be more poweful—a need for justice or a need for mercy—if the dilemma became very personal. I sketched a story that let me explore the subject, and found Kate’s journey through the questions fascinating. Even I found the solution to her dilemma a surprise. Any time the character of God becomes the basis of a story, I have found it to be a wonderful book to write. I hope you enjoyed the story.

As always, I love to hear from my readers. Feel free to write me at:
