Special Target - Large Print by Jerusha Agen (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

She's trying to save the boy's life. What if he's supposed to save hers?

For tough-as-nails Chicago social worker Ashley Sorenson, it's nothing new to risk her life for hurting children. Seeing innocent kids suffer every day may have made her a little cynical, but she'll stop at nothing to rescue children from miserable circumstances.

But Ashley faces a special challenge when Matthew Borden, a sixteen-year-old with Down syndrome, is orphaned. Finding a suitable foster home for the boy becomes the least of her problems when someone starts threatening her and Matthew.

The sudden appearance of a mysterious FBI agent confirms Ashley's growing suspicions that Matthew is no ordinary teen. The boy she thought no one wanted is wanted by many...dead or alive.

Dodging danger at every turn, Ashley races to find the secrets that could save Matthew's life. When the truth unearths her own dark past and threatens more than their lives, the God Matthew trusts may be her only hope for rescue.

A gripping and gritty standalone Christian suspense thriller from the bestselling author of the Guardians Unleashed Series.
