Trust Your Instincts...Only weeks after a shootout at a family vacation home in the mountains that nearly killed blind high school senior Tess Barrett and left nine unidentified mercenaries dead, Tess is thrust into another deadly race against time. Tess's friend Matt has been behaving oddly, and she thinks it might have something to do with Never Bitten, a new game app that everyone seems to be hooked on. Worse, after a fight with her uncle and guardian, Travis, about going to a school dance, Travis disappears. Tess and her assistant Oliver learn that Travis has been kidnapped, and that the game app is infected with an artificial intelligence virus that brainwashes game players. To Tess's horror, she also learns that the game was developed by her father's company, which Travis now runs. When she finds out that Travis gave a copy of the infected game app to Austin Dunn, the U.S. vice president's son, she realizes she's up against a conspiracy so big, a conspiracy to transform the U.S. government at the highest level, she can't stop it alone. And the only person who can help is Travis...if only Tess can find him in time.With the clock ticking, Tess and Oliver race to track down Travis, free him from his kidnappers and get to Washington, D.C., before Austin assassinates his own father...

Who can you trust when you can't even see? Life used to be so easy when she was a royal. All she had to worry about was her wardrobe and makeup. Tess Barrett doesn't know who to trust anymore. Alice, maybe, the long-time manager of the Barrett household, but Alice has all the warmth and charm of a rattlesnake on a snowy night. Not exactly the kind of person Tess wants to cuddle up to and confide in. Then there's her personal assistant Oliver, who's been acting like a jealous middle-school kid whenever their friend Derek is around. And Yoshi, the gardener and Tess's martial arts teacher, suddenly seems to have secrets Tess never imagined. Tess even thinks her Uncle Travis might not be that bad since he let her go to homecoming, but he's let Robyn back into their lives, the woman who Tess is sure tried to come between her parents. Homecoming was the worst disaster imaginable. Bad enough that Oliver tried to kiss her (eww), but then a hired assassin attempted to kill her in front of half the school. Her quick reaction when he hesitated was all that saved her. Now, the principal wants her gone unless Travis provides extra security and metal detectors at all the entrances. Everyone hates her for it. Someone hates her so much that he-or she-posts a porno video made to look like Tess is the star. With mid-term exams coming up, the deadline for college applications looming, and her AP Chemistry teacher threatening to make her drop the course, Tess is feeling more pressure than any senior should. None of it will make a bit of difference if she doesn't find out who's trying to have her killed. Tess, Oliver and Derek follow the money. When she discovers the trail leads to one of the most powerful men in Washington, D.C., and to someone in her father's company, she's no longer sure she wants to know the truth. Once the wheels are set in motion, though, there's no turning back. And with every step she takes, Tess learns the conspiracy against her and everything she holds dear is far deeper and more dangerous than any of them had imagined. She'll have to trust someone, and it will take every resource she can muster to get to the heart of what these dark forces want...if she survives.

What would you do to save someone you love? More than a year after Blake Sanders's life fell apart he's finally starting to pick up the pieces and put it all back together. When his ex-wife Molly is abducted, he vows not to lose her, too. Her high-profile law firm calls in the FBI, which treats the case as a run-of-the-mill kidnap-for-ransom. But to Blake, it's personal. When the kidnappers demand that he deliver the ransom, he knows it is. With Molly's life hanging in the balance, Blake does the unexpected, setting off a chain reaction and a game of cat-and-mouse with the mastermind behind the abduction. The deeper Blake digs for answers, the more apparent it becomes that money is lowest on the kidnappers' list of demands. One of Molly's clients is an ex-Navy SEAL, an expert dolphin trainer turned animal rights activist. When he disappears the stakes suddenly go up, and Blake asks naval intelligence officer Reyna Chase for help. As soon as Reyna gets wind of what's happening, the game changes from saving Molly to saving Seattle from a terrorist threat that could wreak havoc on the city and kill thousands. The only way Blake can stop it is to pay the ransom-not with cash, but with his life. By the author of the Thriller Award-nominated Night Blind, Sherer's third book in the Blake Sanders series grabs the reader by the throat and doesn't let go until the last page is turned.

After a year of rehab from a car accident that killed her parents, Tess Barrett is ready to go back to high school for her final semester as a senior. Blinded in the accident, she hires a "seeing-eye guy" as her personal assistant. On her first day back she gets emails from someone calling himself "Dad," asking her to find and upload computer files. But the e-mailer isn't the only one who wants whatever's in those files, and suddenly people around her start dying violently. Tess wonders how much her Uncle Travis, a former assassin for a secret branch of the Army Special Forces, knows about the files. He returned from a mission in Afghanistan a year earlier to guard her father and the family from a potential threat. And since he was on watch at the time, she also begins to wonder what he knows about the accident that took both her sight and her parents' lives. In a race against time, Tess and her companion Oliver must learn the secret of the mysterious computer files before her uncle takes over her father's multi-billion-dollar software company. And before the killers stalking her get their hands on technology that could change the balance of world power.
