Cameron Andrews of the Baltimore PD went to prison as part of a deep undercover sting. Having exposed the drug cabal in the prison, she has been released on parole. But before Cam has time to pick up the pieces of her life, the drug ring recruits her to join their operation on the outside. Since Cam and her handlers don't know who runs the drug operation, this is a welcome, if unexpected, windfall. The team leaps into action, and soon Cam is learning about the people involved, the manufacturing of the drugs, and the delivery routes. But things are perilous. Her parole officer starts asking uncomfortable questions, and her relationship with Michael is difficult because, though they are deeply committed to one another, they live in different cities. And when the ring is busted and Cam escapes capture, the suspicions of the gang leaders zero in on Cam. Can she manage to deflect suspicion and stay undercover before she ends up back in prison ... or dead?

Out and Beyond

She’d just sat down at the dining room table to drink her coffee when the phone rang. The name on the screen said Thomason Psychiatric Clinic


Cam clicked the phone on. “Hey,” she said cheerily. “How are you?”


“I hope I’m not disturbing anything.”


Cam chuckled. “No, Michael left about an hour ago. She should almost be at the airport by now.”


“Then you’re free to work again.”


Cam heaved a big sigh. “If I must. I thought I didn’t have to be at work until Monday morning.”


Maggie laughed. “Richard just called. There seems to be someone asking around town about how to get in touch with you.”


Maggie smiled. “It seems so, sweetie.”


“Is this a good guy or a bad guy?” Cam asked.


“We don’t know, but it needs to be checked out.”


Cam let that info run through her brain. “Alright. Tonight?”


“If you can. We understand he’s been asking in all the gay and lesbian bars.”


“Gay bars, too? Maybe I should take Pauly with me.”
