Tripwire

The Target: Elizabeth Truett's quiet life is ripped apart when she becomes the only witness to a brutal murder. Suddenly she must accept protective custody from the police, and Captain Bill Jerek is the only person who knows where she is hidden. But two other people are desperately looking for her: one is the killer, and the other is a war-ravaged POW named Tripwire, returned from the horrors of Vietnam to reclaim his life.The Cop: Jerek knows the killer Elizabeth spotted is crime kingpin Marco Galvin. Even though Elizabeth is now tucked safely away, Jerek remembers the last secret witness he had against Galvin -- a witness who ended up dead.

The Odd Man Out: Tripwire. A survivor who has beaten the odds before, an expert tracker back from the jungles whose next quarry is Elizabeth Truett. But only when she finally sees him, in a shattering moment that may seal her fate, will Elizabeth know if Tripwire is her son Bryan -- a Vietnam MIA she thought dead -- or Galvin's last deadly weapon.
