After witnessing a murder involving her boss, a secretary turns to a Federal Marshall for help. She testifies at her bosss trial and then has to run for her life with the assistance of a number of law enforcement officials including the FBI. No one seems to be able to protect her as she begins traveling to numerous places across the USA in an attempt to avoid being killed. Even the people sent to protect her are suspect. Changing her name and using various disguises fail to keep her enemies from locating her. During her moves to various places she befriends two young run-away girls and later a young boy who become part of her life, along with the Federal Marshall who proves to be more than he seems. She finds help and friendship in unexpected places and eventually her problems come to a happy, though unexpected conclusion, when more than one person she trusts have become her enemies. This is a fictional story though most of the places mentioned are actual communities in and around the USA. My Father was in law enforcement and several characters are similar to some of his friends that I knew during his lifetime, though their names and places they lived are not as portrayed in my story.
