A century-old mystery, a hidden treasure, and an isolated estate where danger lurks in every shadow.
For historical anthropologist Cara Tucker, the chance to spend a sabbatical semester on a remote country estate–with full access to its vast library and century-old journals–is a dream come true . . . until a series of strange incidents begins to turn her dream into a nightmare. Someone, it seems, does not want anyone diving into the past and unearthing old ghosts.
Sheriff Brad Mitchell has seen his share of suspicious activities during his law enforcement career, but what’s happening at the isolated estate is out-of-pattern in his quiet, rural Missouri county. Beset by danger, Cara and Brad work together to try to untangle the clues.
But when the peril turns lethal, the situation takes on a new urgency, and their mission is clear: Find out who is behind the string of menacing incidents before the perpetrator strikes another deadly blow.
The Queen of Romantic Suspense presents another page-turning, clean thriller in her Undaunted Courage series. Fans of Colleen Coble, Patricia Bradley, and Terri Blackstock will find this shadowy tale electrifying.

Summary
Out of Time by Irene Hannon was an exceptional read! It’s the third book in the Undaunted Courage series, but it can easily be enjoyed as a standalone. Hannon has a gift for creating complex, relatable characters — and in this story, she adds intriguing professions and real-world challenges that make them even more compelling.
The balance of sweet romance and edge-of-your-seat suspense was perfect. I loved how Hannon created multiple possible culprits and slowly revealed the truth in a satisfying, well-paced way.
Cara and Brad’s romance was tender and genuine — a gentle love story wrapped in a high-stakes adventure. And that epilogue made for a most satisfying ending. loved it!! I highly recommend.
