Steel-Tipped Velvet

Spy Games -- an exclusive tournament for law enforcement officials only. Private investigator Kim Casey has a personal invitation, but it's her brother who's taken home the trophy four years running. This year, Kim intends to win, at any cost.

But to do that, she needs to master the one sport she's never been able to get a handle on: fencing. And who better to train her than Galen Warner, a former fencing champion with a reputation for winning matches in the face of incredible odds?

The only problem is, no one's seen him in eight years. With a warrant out for his immediate arrest, he disappeared the night of his final championship win.

Kim knows the cops charged the wrong man with murder that night. And she's resourceful, having made a career out of finding people who'd rather remain lost. Now she has one chance to convince Galen to train her before he fades into the shadows once again. And if becoming Galen's temporary mistress will convince him to become her fencing master, well, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do...
