Honeymoon
By
James Patterson and Howard Roughan
Nora
Sinclair, a top interior designer is beautiful, intelligent, funny,
sexy, and a gourmet cook who expects the best in life. She was formerly
married to a top cardiologist who died unexpectedly of a heart attack.
She is married to a best selling writer, and engaged to a millionaire
investment banker. Unfortunately, all her lovers seem to drop dead
after eating the gourmet omelet she prepares for them. She has invested
the monetary rewards for all these alliances in an offshore account
in the Cayman Islands.
Special
agent for the Joint Terrorist Task Force, John O'Hara is monitoring
suspicious fund transfers, searching for hidden terrorist funds.
He becomes suspicious of her banking activities, not sure whether
she is a spy or a terrorist or an innocent just hiding her assets.
He disguises himself as an insurance agent overseeing her claim
of her investment banker's insurance. He becomes fascinated with
Nora and her fatal charm, and fights the danger of succumbing to
these charms.
This
is written in Patterson's unique style...short chapters, each of
which encompasses a single episode...which speeds the action. The
story is fast moving. It is filled with suspense and with surprise
after surprise. These will keep the reader turning the pages until
the biggest surprise of all...the deadly unexpected ending. |
