Cold Around the Heart

Description

Bonnie Parker is a small-town private detective on the Jersey shore who just happens to be named after America’s most notorious female outlaw, the distaff half of Bonnie & Clyde. And though no one can prove it, she’s an outlaw in her own right, willing to supplement her PI duties by acting as a professional assassin. For a price, and when circumstances warrant it, she’ll take extreme measures to solve her clients’ problems – permanently. Bonnie is experienced and tough – but she’s never gone up against an adversary like Pascal, a globetrotting hit man who has raised murder to the level of a fine art. During a turbulent summer night, while Bonnie struggles to untangle a web of deception that stretches to the jungles of South America, she and Pascal face off in a blistering battle for survival – a battle only one of them can win. Michael Prescott is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of 23 thrillers. His novels have been hailed as “brilliant … chilling … unrelentingly suspenseful” (Publishers Weekly), “harrowing … intense” (Jeffery Deaver), “irresistible, un-put-downable” (Crescent Blues), and “stunning … far above the usual offerings for the genre” (New Mystery Reader).
