There is something compelling about a man who kills for a
living. Rafael Salinas is mysterious. He's ruthless. He
exudes raw sexuality that makes women like Drea Rousseau
willing to cross over to the dark side. That is until the
day he does the unthinkable and bites the hand that feeds
him. Then, he's just like all the others. Drea knows what
she now has to do. Just how she's going to get it done is
the question.
Playing the part of a blonde bombshell
has gotten Drea this
far. She has almost everything a girl could want, except
for her soul. She knows that breaking free from the chains
that bind her will require money and lots of it. And, who
better to steal from than the man who has destroyed her
very being. Good thing she has been secretly preparing for
this day all along. Now, if only she can outwit the master
at his own game.
Betraying the man whose name is synonymous with the
term cold-blooded murderer proves to be a treacherous
undertaking for Drea. As she scrambles to outrun the hired
gun he has sent after her, Drea is involved in a tragic
accident that brings her one step closer to her future.
Armed with the knowledge that she has the chance to make
things right, Drea sets out on a mission to bring Salinas
to justice.
With nowhere else to turn, she engages in
a risky
relationship with the one man that can beat Salinas at his
own game. But, can Drea trust that he won't double-cross
her in the process? Why is she so willing to risk it all
for a mercenary who has no regard for human life? Could it
be that the physical attraction she feels towards him has
blinded her better judgment? Will Salinas get his just due, or
will Drea simply become his next victim?
DEATH
ANGEL is Linda Howard's latest rollercoaster ride of
suspense that is filled with twists and turns that has her
readers screaming for more. Without a doubt, Howard's
DEATH ANGEL is this summer's hottest ticket.
In Linda Howard’s gifted hands, second chances, unexpected
romance, and unrelenting action combine into a riveting new
novel of suspense. In Death Angel, bad girls can wake up and
trust their hearts, bad guys can fight for what’s right . .
. and dying just might be the only way to change one’s
life.
A striking beauty with a taste for diamonds and
dangerous men, Drea Rousseau is more than content to be arm
candy for Rafael Salinas, a notorious crime lord who deals
with betrayal through quick and treacherous means: a bullet
to the back of the head, a blade across the neck, an
incendiary device beneath a car. Eager to break with Rafael,
Drea makes a fateful decision and a desperate move, stealing
a mountain of cash from the malicious killer. After all, an
escape needs to be financed.
Though Drea runs,
Salinas knows she can’t hide–and he dispatches a
cold-blooded assassin in hot pursuit, resulting in a tragic
turn of events. Or does it?
Left for dead, Drea
miraculously returns to the realm of the living a changed
woman. She’s no longer shallow and selfish, no longer steals
or cheats or sells herself short. Both humbled and thrilled
with this unexpected second chance, Drea embraces her new
life. But in order to feel safe and sound–and stop nervously
looking over her shoulder–she will need to take down those
who marked her for death.
Joining forces with the
FBI, supplying vital inside information that only she can
provide, Drea finds herself working with the most dangerous
man she’s ever known. Yet the closer they get to danger, the
more intense their feelings for each other become, and the
more Drea realizes that the cost of her new life may be her
life itself–as well as her heart.
