Help Me Please (Suze Figueroa)

An hour and a half after three-year-old Danielle Gaston is kidnapped from the Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago, a new web sit pops up on the Wold Wide Web--featuring Danielle Gaston. She's isolated in a room with no food and only water to drink. This live-action web page is available to all net users around the world and is soon rebroadcast on CNN and other networks. Since Danielle is the only child of a popular country &amp; western singer and a senator, her case is a high profile one--and likely to end in heartbreak. Who better to take the fall for a bad outcome than Polly Kelly?

Authorized Personnel Only

For Chicago cop Suze Figueroa, home is a sanctuary, a quiet refuge from the crime, corruption, and tragedy she encounters everyday on the job. The creaky old Victorian house she shares with her little boy, her invalid sister, and her sister's family seems far removed from the threats and dangers of the mean city streets.. . . or so she believes. The truth is far more terrifying, for, unknown to Suze, a stranger has moved into the house: an intruder who waits in the attic by day and prowls her home at night, spying on both the unsuspecting adults and the defenseless children. While Suze spends her work day tracking down an elusive serial killer, she has no idea that a much more personal danger lives under her own roof, eating her food, handling her gun, and watching her loved ones.... Strips of yellow tape may keep curious bystanders away from crimes scenes, but nothing so simple can protect Suze and her family from the menace that has invaded the privacy--and the safety--of their own home.
