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

“Incredible, Cam.” Vicky took a deep breath. “Incredible.”


“Well,” Vicky finally said, “I’m going to kick you out. I do have real work to do. I hope you don’t mind if I reprimand you in public.”


“No.” Cam shook her head. “I’m used to it by now.” She smiled. “Thanks,” she whispered


Cam turned and walked out of Vicky’s office.


“Don’t forget to use the phone next time,” Vicky called after her. “And if you miss one more appointment, you’re going back in.”


Then she turned and beckoned to the next parolee.


The first thing Cam did when she got home was dial her sister’s number.


“Hi, Lor,” Cam said when her sister answered the phone. “Hope this is a good time to talk.”


“It is. I just put the dishes in the dishwasher.”


“Don’t you have a dishwasher?” Lori asked.


“Don’t you ever use it? Or do you eat out all the time?” Lori knew her sister didn’t do a lot of cooking.
