This book is the sequel to The Zero Factor. Aphrodite's Redemption - The Lion
Roars begins about two months after the assassination attempt on John and the abduction
of Kim that climaxed that novel. John and Kim had known each other earlier, but went their
separate ways for six years. Here we find out what happened to them during that hiatus,
and about the secret that Kim is afraid will jeopardize John's presidential campaign. John
has secrets of his own.
The man that was responsible for the assassination attempt on John, and Kim's abduction
is still very much in the picture and now he wants Kim back for his very own. He has kidnapped
eleven victims during the previous eleven years, and is planning to, once again, abduct
Kim. This is year twelve, and Kim will be his twelfth kidnapping...the last one; she's
where it all started. He's spent years waiting for Kim and is totally preoccupied by his
plans for her.
This is a psychological thriller of evil and eroticism that is a thoroughly enjoyable
story; exciting and fast paced, with great characters and a plot that will keep you reading
all night. If you let John Hoffert take you inside the mind of the frightening villain
in this story, count on nightmares as your reward.
John Hoffert is definitely an author to watch. Volume three in the series, The Time
of Reckoning - The Lion Strikes will be coming out in November 2005, and I can't wait
to read it.
