Wendy Harper got brutally attacked by a masked assailant six years ago right on her porch and that caused her to flee Los Angeles and assume a new identity and a new life – all with the help of private dick Jack Till. But now her ex-boyfriend and former business partner, Eric Fuller, is being framed for her presumed murder in an effort to smoke her out, and Till must find her before tango-dancing assassins Paul and Sylvie Turner do. The Turners are merely hired to do a job, though, and prefer to remain anonymous.
When they find that a middleman has let the true employer know their identities, finishing the job is no longer enough. Their fee just went up. Now that her ex-boyfriend and former business partner is being framed for her presumed murder in an effort to smoke her out, Jack must find her before a pair of hired assassins do. And now they must double-cross the man who wants Wendy dead before he can double-cross them–if their jealousy and cold-blooded calculations don’t result in a fatal lovers’ quarrel first.
With masterful plotting and unnerving psychological insight, Perry delivers another mesmerizing thrill ride.
