About this listen
Laurel Dane faces tough challenges as she grapples with betrayal, family secrets, and a dangerous criminal underworld in her Tennessee hometown.
Haunted by the dishonesty of a close family member, Laurel must confront her own feelings of anger while unraveling a nationwide kidnapping ring that targets innocent babies for ransom. Determined to bring justice to the victims and stop the criminals behind the operation, Laurel dives deep into the investigation, risking everything to save lives and uncover the truth.
But as Laurel delves deeper into the case, she's forced to make difficult decisions about her future in Appleman's Gap and her relationship with Brad Tate, the man she loves. Caught between her duty as an F.B.I. agent and her desire for a peaceful life, Laurel must navigate treacherous waters both professionally and personally.
As she struggles to mend broken bonds and find closure, Laurel discovers that the ties that bind her to her family and her hometown are stronger than she ever imagined.
In Ties That Bind Her, Laurel Dane's journey will test her strength, resilience, and determination as she fights to uncover the truth and protect the ones she loves. But will she emerge victorious, or will the secrets of Appleman’s Gap tear her apart?
