Taut, chilling suspense, The Crush is Sandra Brown at her finest. While readers may have been discouraged with some of her more recent books, The Crush is back to her early style of thrilling crime coupled with romance. As a surgeon, Dr. Rennie Newton is the consummate professional. When she's summoned to jury duty, she brings to the courtroom the same level of competence and composure that she displays in the operating room. It is this commitment to precision that compels her to deliver a not guilty verdict in the murder case against notorious contract killer Ricky Lozada. It will be the most regrettable decision of her life.
Her carefully structured life begins to crumble when a rival colleague is brutally slain. Lozada's menacing shadow looms over the murder, but it's Rennie the investigators focus on as the prime suspect. When Lozada begins an earnest courtship, insinuating himself into every aspect of her life, it becomes terrifyingly clear that he is obsessed with having her.
Wick Threadgill is a detective on indefinite leave from the Fort Worth PD, who has his own personal agenda for the contract killer. Temperamental, bitter, and driven by loyalty and love, Wick is determined to destroy Lozada - as determined as Lozada is to possess Rennie Newton. In order to defeat Lozada and save their lives Rennie and Wick form an uneasy alliance. When this killer strikes, they won't see it coming. |
