by
Elizabeth Lowell
After five years, Rand McCree has finally been offered what he desires the most: the name of his twin brother's murderer. Hungry for vengeance, he accepts a job with St. Kilda Consulting that will place him in the killer's orbit... and tantalizingly close to Kayla Shaw, a private banker in Arizona. The cold-blooded criminal responsible for Rand's brother's death has targeted Kayla as his next victim. Since she can't turn to the police, she must place her life in the hands of the shadowy, secretive man who has come out of nowhere to protect her. Suspicious of each other, needing each other, they are two against the world -- with unknown enemies on all sides and even the government itself suspect -- as the violence of the past erupts in the present. | |

Defending the "Escapist" and "Formulaic"
| Bothered by the put-downs she sees directed at genre fiction, Lowell -- who has written sci-fi, mystery and romance -- defends all three in a lengthy essay on her web site. "Contrary to what the critics tell us," she writes, "popular fiction is not a swamp of barely literate escapism; popular fiction is composed of ancient myths newly reborn, telling and retelling a simple truth: ordinary people can do extraordinary things."
