Synopsis

JANE WHITEFIELD is . . .
. . . in the one-woman business of helping the desperate disappear. Thanks to her membership in the Wolf Clan of the Seneca tribe, she can fool any pursuer, cover any trail, and then provide her clients with new identities, complete with authentic paperwork. Jane knows all the tricks, ancient and modern; in fact, she has invented several of them herself. But when Jane opens a door out of the world for an attractive fugitive named John Felker, she walks into a trap that will take all her heritage and cunning to escape. . . .
"A unique heroine, an ultracompetent woman attuned to the ancient ways of her ancestors and to the harsh realities of the modern, bureaucratic world."

--San Francisco Chronicle
"A compelling, multifaceted protagonist. Whitefield is as tough as Sam Spade, as tender as Jo in Little Women and as resourceful as Robinson Crusoe's Friday."

--Philadelphia Inquirer
"Strong-willed . . . [A] most singular creation."

--The New York Times Book Review
"Entertainingly resourceful."

--The New York Times
"One sharp and tough cookie."

--Detroit News

About this title

From the Publisher:

Jane Whitefield is an incredibly strong and interesting character. I loved all three of Thomas Perry's Whitefield novels: VANISHING ACT, DANCE FOR THE DEAD, and SHADOW WOMAN.I'm the District Sales Manager for the wholesale market and I found Thomas Perry at his Target signing in Southern California to be very gracious and generous to his fans -- taking the time to chat and answer questions while signing copies of his books. Nanci Andersen, Ballantine Sales
