Keeper of Water #2
Recruits
Nia Ammo's memory returns at the worst possible moment. As she chases after Cassie, she remembers who she is... who she REALLY is. It's difficult enough to deal with the present let alone her crazy past, which makes her current life seem tame by comparison...
Nothing is as it seems - nobody is who they claim to be - and Nia soon learns that Celeste and John aren't the only two people she knows with famous backgrounds. The race is on to unlock every memory in her mind before she loses anyone else close to her. Will events from the past allow her to survive the future?
Recruits is the exciting second book in the Keeper of the Water trilogy, one that weaves a tale of Nia's past with her present, all culminating with one final discovery that will shock all...
CHAPTER ONE
Timing is everything in life. And mine just happens to be terrible.
“Gray van, pull over now!” echoes the voice of authority speeding behind me. I barely hear it over the sound of rushing wind. “Young lady, get back inside the vehicle now or we will open fire!”
Celeste drives the tour van like a wild woman, pushing it so hard that the engine whines with protest. We speed down the highway – at least as much as the van can speed – weaving in and out of traffic. It’s not the first high-speed chase I’ve been involved in today but this time it’s the police chasing us instead of John’s soldiers.
Ponce de Leon’s soldiers, I remind myself. I allow the thought of John to enter my mind for only a split second and it almost leads to catastrophe. I lose my balance just long enough to fall out of my open door. Somehow I manage to hook my arms through the open window frame and stop my body from plunging to the speeding pavement below. My feet dangle mere inches from the street but Celeste doesn’t ease off the gas.
“Focus on what you’re doing, Nia!” she yells. “You have to stop those cops from getting us or we’ll never reach Cassie!”
As we speed around a tractor-trailer – the police car still hot on our tail – the van’s passenger door clips the side of the monstrous truck. The impact nearly jars my grip loose but it also slams the door closed and shoots me back into my seat. I barely have time to catch my breath and get over the shock of still being alive.
“Will you stop messing around already?” Celeste barks at me.
