Branded Woman (Hard Case Crime)

International jewelry smuggling may be a man’s business, but beautiful Cay Morgan can hold her own with the best. Until the day a shadowy rival known only as The Trader has her abducted and scarred for life as a warning to stay out of his way.

Now Cay’s on her way to Mazatlan, where one of The Trader’s men has been spotted. There’s a big deal going down – but she’s not there to make a score.  

Just to settle one.

The writing team of Robert Wade and William Miller collaborated under a number of pseudonyms, including Whit Masterson, Dale Wilmer, and Will Daemer.  

As Wade Miller they wrote many of their best books, including the Max Thursday series of private eye novels and the memorable Kitten With a Whip, which became a movie starring Ann-Margaret.
