"Viuda Negra"-- Jack and Danny head to Mexico to find a wealthy American vacationer who was abducted at gunpoint in front of his wife, on a rebroadcast of WITHOUT A TRACE, Thursday, Feb. 23 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Paul McCrane ("ER") directed the episode written by Scott Williams, one of the series' co-executive producers. (Originally broadcast 11/3/05)

Alex Kingston ("ER") guest stars as Lucy Costin, the missing man's new wife.

Once in Mexico, Jack and Danny face resistance from a territorial federale as well as from Lucy (Kingston), who's upset that her mother called the FBI as the kidnappers threatened to kill her husband, James, if the authorities became involved. As the team tracks down local suspects, they begin to wonder if the kidnapping and ransom negotiations are being orchestrated from the U.S.
