Target: The Girl (The Emily Calby Series)

"Once again, I'm floored, breathless, and sleep-deprived from racing through yet another harrowing and heartfelt adventure in the ever-dangerous life of young Emily Calby." — NetGalley

Emily Calby’s destiny as a justice seeker was forged at age twelve when two men invaded her rural Georgia home and murdered her family. The only survivor, she ran away—and vanished. Ex-gang member Lucas Jackson took her in off the streets of Memphis and became her protector, mentor, and family. He taught her everything she knows, including how to kill.

Now twenty, Emily’s excited to start law school and pursue a different brand of justice. But something’s wrong. She’s being stalked. Or is she? Traumatized by her past, she lives in a state of hypervigilance where the ordinary seems ominous. A moved houseplant. An anonymous welcome note. A broken starfish. They’re nothing ... but still.

As threats close in all around her, she struggles to navigate the pressures of law school, a budding romance that isn’t what it seems, and a past that refuses to stay buried.

Tense, emotional, and deeply gripping, this standalone thriller raises the stakes in the unforgettable journey of Emily Calby.
