As Rob recovers from his injuries he begins to work on the farm with the others, proving that he is no stranger to hard work. He is a quick learner and not afraid to pitch in. As time goes on, his memory continues to evade him, except for odd impressions. As a thank-you to the Riley family for everything they have done for him, he decides to use the money the sheriff found to do some day-trading in the stock market and try get enough money to do a few things for the family.

Slowly he finds he is developing feelings for the daughter, Rachel. When his memory returns, will he continue to fall in love with Rachel, or will he return to a woman who claims to be his fiancee?
About the Author: I began my writing adventures while in the fourth grade, writing stories instead of the required book reports my teachers asked for. When I read them in front of the class it seemed to be entertaining for my classmates, but probably caused more than a few gray hairs for the teachers. I have held a variety of jobs, mostly in the medical billing field or medical assisting. Being a long time mystery reader, I decided to try my hand at writing one, under the name G. K. Kruszka. I named it False Impressions and it became a local success. This small success encouraged me to continue to write, and Dangerous Depths and Deadly Predictions followed shortly thereafter. My long-suffering spouse and I live in central Washington State.
