Awaken the Dawn - Paperback

When her father dies during a business trip to Romania, Kat Barrett blames herself for their failed relationship. She's been holding a grudge, keeping him at arm's length, and never even said 'I love you' when he left... But regret is just the beginning of her problems. Kat is teetering on the brink of anxiety and depression, and as her grief deepens, she becomes haunted by strange dreams about the crash that took her father's life.

Then one day a package arrives. It appears to be from her father and contains a list of familiar-looking clues - one of his classic scavenger hunts. Desperate for answers, Kat follows the clues to Romania and meets a local named Maksim, a reformed criminal with the perfect skill set for decoding the mystery. Romance wasn't on the itinerary, but when Kat teams up with this European heartthrob, her love life takes an unexpected detour.

As Kat and Maksim work together, solving the clues and growing ever closer with each success, the scavenger hunt uncovers a dark secret Kat's dreams have been pointing to, something Maksim's old crime ring has been hiding all along. Kat has walked into a trap. Can she beat these ruthless men to the final clue - and solve it - before she suffers the same fate as her father?
