Synopsis

When OB Dr. Tara Ross secretly delivers a New York senator’s granddaughter in suburban Brewster Medical Center, all goes smoothly until the baby becomes ill, necessitating her admission to the neonatal intensive care nursery. Complicating her granddaughter’s guarded condition, a violent gang threatens the senator’s life for her stance on illegal immigration that directly impacts the gang’s recruitment pool. Captain Jeffrey Corrigan, captain of the Brewster PD, and Tara’s devoted husband, would rather be solving a nail-biting case rather than spending his and his squad’s time mixing it up with the glut of media arriving once the birth of senator’s grand daughter is leaked to the press, but once he’s notified of the threat aimed at the senator’s life, he springs into action to protect her. Confident he has a safe hiding place for the senator, Jeffrey and his longtime sidekick and now lieutenant, Mike Price, embark on a conjoined sting with the FBI and ICE to uproot the gang’s Long Island nest. Their main target is the notorious machete- yielding gang leader. But when the operation nets member’s of his gang, the leader vows revenge and orders the kidnapping of the senator’s granddaughter to smoke out the senator and to capture Jeffrey in retaliation for the loss of his men. It’s a showdown to the death when the gang leader demands the ultimate payback.

Hot Button Immigration

The present debate on how to handle illegal immigration at the US/Mexico border leaves many on different sides of this hot button issue. But for sure, no one wants MS-13, a violent gang, to enter and set up in nests around the country, especially those in Long Island, NY. In my fictional novel, Code Pink-Dr. Tara Ross series Volume 4, I address those issues, specifically how a senator's stance on MS-13 sets off the abduction of her newborn granddaughter.

Book Excerpt

Code Pink

Tara slowed her car and sized up the glut of local and New York City media vehicles crammed in front of the hospital, regurgitating strings of reporters with microphones pressed to their mouths. And it wouldn’t be long before protestors arrived to join the melee.

So much for the senator and her daughter’s privacy.

Why couldn’t they leave the poor woman in peace, especially today of all days? The birth of the senator’s first grandchild should be a time of joy.

Senator Diane Fenwick had done everything she could to make sure Marley would be able to have her baby in the serene suburbs, nestled far from the hubbub of New York City.

But the senator’s hot-button stance on immigration reform, aimed particularly at stopping MS-13 gang members and other criminals from crossing the US/Mexican border, thrust her into the limelight once again, and unfortunately Marley was swept up into her mother’s tidal wave of public opinion.
