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.
