Police Lieutenant Phoebe MacNamara found her calling at an early age when an unstable man broke into her family`s home, trapping and terrorizing them for hours. Now she`s Savannah`s top hostage negotiator, defusing powderkeg situations with a talent for knowing when to give in-and when to jump in and take action.
