However, her ex’s increasingly disturbing behavior concerns her, and she begins to investigate him.

When the house eventually grew quiet, Jackson expected Lily to appear on her back porch, glass of red wine in hand, but tonight she took him aback by marching up to him and declaring in an imperious tone of voice, “I know who you are. You’re the ki…”
“Killer, yes,” Jackson interrupted with a dismissive wave of his hand. “We know. I hope your new sister-in-law clarified that I only killed one person that day. Jeff Williams, who damn well deserved it after he shot his pregnant wife.”
Ignoring the deepness of his voice with its Southern accent, his spectacular body, and vivid blue eyes, Lily continued, “She did. Why are you in Marysville, Agent? More specifically, why are you hanging around my girls at their school?”
Jackson mentally sighed. He wondered when that bit of information would come to her attention. “Well, Mrs. Beaumont…”
She bristled and cut him off. “Don’t call me that. I no longer use my married name. Miss Stone, if you please.”
I don’t please, he thought. His agitation with her served to make his Southern drawl more pronounced. “Well, lady,” he countered with a caustic edge to his voice, “after two years undercover, my supervisor transferred me to the San Francisco field office, and I’ve been training the officers at the McAllister Forensic lab in behavioral analysis.”
“Why aren’t you living in San Francisco? Why are you living next door to me?” she asked suspiciously.
“I like the view.” He tipped an imaginary Stetson.
Lily gritted her teeth. “Why are you constantly at the school?”
