CIA operative Max Duncan has endured two years of complete
hell somewhere in the jungles of Thailand, held in
captivity for the sole purpose of mind control experiments.
His best friend, Rocco, along with other CIA friends, has
never stopped trying to find Max.
Using information gleaned from reliable sources, Rocco's
boss, Travis, sends in his men to rescue Max and another
operative, Dante. When they reach the secret compound, they
find Max already battling the guards. Soon, the guards are
taken out and Max and another man, Taz, are rescued. Dante
is not there. The group tries to bring along the scientist
who has been running the experiments, but a guard comes
along and in the shootout, Max is shot and the scientist
escapes.
Max and Taz are taken to a hospital in San Diego under
false names. The famous Dr. Winchette is called in to treat
the men. Rocco, who was a previous captive and victim of
mind-control experiments, asks Dr. Winchette to bring Dr.
Erin Houston along. She was able to successfully treat
Rocco so that he could return to his previous life.
Winchette reluctantly agrees.
Taz escapes. While Dr. Winchette is looking for him, Max
manages to escape, as well, before the staff heavily
sedates him per Dr. Winchette's orders. Max can read minds.
Having read Winchette and Erin's minds, Max knows he needs
to get away and find Taz. The two men were able to keep
their sanity by mentally communicating with each other and
vowed that once they escaped, they would meet in a
specified location. But Max can't remember where this is.
Erin is a reluctant hostage at first, only because she
thinks Max needs the medical help she can't give in the
field. She can't explain the connection she feels with Max,
and images in her mind of what she wants to do with Max
make her blush. Erin quickly discovers she wants and needs
Max to be a part of her life.
When Max tries to remember his past, he experiences
horrific headaches, which increase in intensity the more he
tries to remember. Max discovers that thinking of touching
Erin grounds him and keeps the headaches at bay. While Max
and Erin move around the U.S., someone new is tracking him
from an implanted chip. Plans are in motion to capture both
men detrimental to the continued success of the mind
control experiments.
Cate Noble creates an instant stake in DEADLY
SEDUCTION with well-crafted characters who deftly draw the
reader into the plot. We are thrilled as the plot unfolds
and the risks increase. DEADLY SEDUCTION seduces the
thriller reader succinctly.

and into a web of intrigue with the only woman who can help
him salvage what's left of his life. 'Think only of the
mission - or suffer the consequences'. This has been Max
Duncan's reality for two years. His thoughts are not his

excruciating pain. Then his friends stage a rescue he never
believed possible. Finally 'safe' at home, Max still can't
escape the prison of his own mind...Dr. Erin Houston, called
to California to help Max, would rather be investigating her

murder. But when she and Max end up on the run, their time
together sparks a connection between the mind-control
experiments her father was fighting to stop and Max's
suffering...Now, as Erin and Max race to expose the truth,
someone with a different agenda is closing in - and will
stop at nothing to prove them dead wrong...
