Editorial Reviews

The Barnes & Noble Review
This gripping romantic suspense story by the author of The Perfect Victim is a captivating blend of medical thriller, police procedural, and sexy contemporary romance. Medical researcher Elizabeth "Eli" Barnes had personal reasons for devoting the last decade to her work to a team developing new pharmaceutical treatments for depression. And, though her social life is at a standstill, her professional status is soaring, thanks her recently released antidepressant, Valazine. When Chicago police detective Adam Boedecker comes to her with claims that Valazine is inducing murderous rages in some of the previously nonviolent patients receiving it, she doesn't want to believe him. She's sure such a devastating side effect would have been noted during the drug's clinical trials. At first it's easy to deny the claims, especially after she learns that the intensely attractive detective is on medical leave, that his investigation is completely unauthorized, and that his brother's involvement in a recent murder-suicide gives him an all-too-personal interest in the case. When Eli's mentor is murdered, she starts her own investigation … and is devastated as evidence supporting Adam's theory begins to mount, along with the body count. Soon, the onetime adversaries become partners in passion as well as investigation -- and cover-ups and cryptic warnings escalate to dangerous cat-and-mouse games, murder, and more. Sue Stone
