When Elle Philips witnesses an armed robbery while standing in line at the bank, she sets into motion a deadly game of cat and mouse. Mark Denton, a security contractor and former navy SEAL, also witnesses the robbery, and is hired by Elle's father to keep his daughter safe following the incident. And while Denton's desire to protect Elle goes beyond professional bounds, he cannot let personal desires cloud his judgment--judgment he'll have to rely on when the robbers' true motives are revealed...and Elle becomes a target in the ultimate plot of revenge.
Key Witness is the first in Christy Barritt's Security Expert Series, although one of the main characters, Mark Denton, is introduced in an earlier book, Last Target. Although you don't need to, I went back and read that one first. In Key Witness, Elle Philips witnesses a bank robbery and then all of a sudden, the robbers are trying to kill her. Mark Denton is hired to protect her, and they soon figure out there is a lot more involved than a bank robbery. The thieves seem to have it out for Elle personally. As Mark and Elle try to keep one step ahead of the thieves and try to figure out what on earth is going on, they find themselves attracted to one another. Another suspense-filled, edge of your seat novel by Christy Barritt. A must-read if you like romance and suspense!
