Black Orchid

Jordan Quinn was back in the Florida Everglades, where her teenage elopement with the fiercely proud Seminole Seth Cypress had ended. Now she was following her husband, brilliant scientist Lawrence Quinn, who was pursuing the cure for a disease shadowing humankind. It was a cure that might flow in the veins of the panther held sacred by the Seminoles, and hunted by someone who wanted it at any price. Then, suddenly, horribly, Lawrence was gone, the panther was missing, and Jordan was terribly afraid. A stalking enemy wanted her arrested for murder or else to be the victim of one. And the only person she could turn to was Seth Cypress, now Seminole chairman, who had bitterly fought her husband's plans, and whose passionate love could be a mask for deadly hate.
