There are those in the big business of living and dying who think she's becoming too curious . . . and it's high time her questions were silenced. Hannah Ives knows what it means to be a survivor. Now she's caught in an ever-tightening web of greed, fraud and corruption, and she's about to discover what it means to be a targe
