Proximity (Paperback or Softback)

An old foe has returned for revenge…but Lexi Mills never backs down from a fight.

When chaos erupts at a local grocery store in a quiet town near Sacramento, police arrive to discover a horrifying scene—explosive devices trapping a crowd of civilians inside the store, ready to detonate at the push of a button. After ATF explosives expert Lexi Mills arrives on the scene, she quickly realizes that this hostage situation runs far deeper than she imagined…

Locked in a desperate struggle with a vengeful madman while racing against the clock, Lexi must use all of her cunning to rescue the innocent hostages; a situation that forces her to grapple with impossible questions.

But her enemies aren’t going down without a fight, and Lexi will need to put her life on the line and push her skills to their limits if she wants to get everybody out unscathed…

A late bloomer, award-winning author Stacy Lynn Miller took up writing after retiring from the Air Force. Her twenty years of toting a gun and police badge, tinkering with computers, and sleuthing for clues as an investigator form the foundation of her Lexi Mills thriller series, as well as her Manhattan Sloane novels. She is visually impaired, a proud stroke survivor, mother of two, tech nerd, chocolate lover, and terrible golfer with a hole-in-one. When you can't find her writing, she'll be golfing or drinking wine (sometimes both) with friends and family in Lincoln, California.
