Nine Minutes to Midnight

A Nash Running Bear Mystery, Book 9

An old buddy reaches out to Nash from the other side, through her spirit world. He's desperate for her help to track down his granddaughter. Nash, not fully convinced it wasn't just a figment of her sleep-deprived mind, initiates a deep dive in the dead of night. But this time, it was bypassing her usual routes. The Feds have her back on New Mexico soil with an armored truck heist mission, but it's got a devilish twist. All leads hit dead ends, unraveling into events she never saw coming. The heist reeks of terrorist tactics—too much like another sandbox in her past.

Meanwhile, the Oklahoma missing girl is a puzzle piece that doesn't quite fit. Yet it set Nash's instincts working overtime—as if it's all connected in some unseen way. When another person vanishes, it's too close to home. Conflicted, Nash grapples with old emotions as every decision feels fraught with consequences.
