Julian Price—known overseas as the lethal sniper "Crimson Wolf"—is given an absurd assignment: return home and protect Rachel Whitman, the wife of Sentinel Hall's leader, for ten days. Disguised as a lowly security guard, he blends into her company, only to realize that this cold, formidable woman is the very same "ugly duckling" he saved a decade ago. He pretends not to recognize her, sticking to her side around the clock, just to get the job done. But she has already seen through him. He doesn't know she remembers. She doesn't know he has two faces. She tests him, doubts him, falls for him—unaware that he once gripped a blade for her, leaving a scar that will never fade. The mob boss's wife vs. the double-faced bodyguard. Who is hunting whom?
