Not sure how it's possible, but Sandra Brown certainly out did
herself with this crazy twisted crime novel of epic
proportions. Not even the best arm chair detectives among
her long list of fans will ferret out the ending even
armed with a litany of clues. The ending is vintage
Sandra Brown and STING is definitely one of her best yet
and that's saying a lot.
STING is smart, sassy, sexy and satisfying. Page by page
Brown sends you down a path that has more twist and turns
than you can imagine. There are some wonderful characters
to meet in STING and some will surprisingly become quite
dear. Seems the scruffier they are the better in one of
Sandra Brown's books.
Jordan has had a tough time living within what had
definitely become a dysfunctional family. And that's being
kind. Her relationship with her brother Josh is the stuff
nightmares are made of. Josh just can't get out of his
own way and with the guilt trip he had laid on Jordie all
these years -- he doesn't have to. She steps in whenever
he is in another jam. But this newest problem is one that
won't just disappear and Jordie is out of solutions.
Now it seems that there are hitmen out to get her wayward
brother and they have Jordie in their sights as well.
I'm sure all Sandra Brown fan has a list of favorites and
I think STING is a strong contender for a spot on that
list. In STING Sandra Brown intelligently has her
characters difficult to figure. Her characters seem to
cross lines making it a task to ferret out the bad guys
from the good ones. As always Brown makes sure that her
reader gets invested in the characters in STING.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown returns
with another suspenseful, sexy thriller-now in paperback!
#1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Sandra
Brown jolts the reader from the first page of this
heart-pounding story of corruption, treachery, and ceaseless
deception . . . where nothing is what it seems and every
truth brought to light exposes a darker lie.
When Jordie Bennet and Shaw Kinnard lock eyes across a
disreputable backwater bar, something definitely sparks.
Shaw gives off a dangerous vibe that makes men wary and
inspires women to sit up and take notice. None feel that
undercurrent more strongly than savvy businesswoman Jordie,
who doesn't belong in a seedy dive on the banks of a bayou.
But here she is . . . and Shaw Kinnard is here to kill her.
As Shaw and his partner take aim, Jordie is certain her time
has come. But Shaw has other plans and abducts Jordie,
hoping to get his hands on the $30 million her brother has
stolen and, presumably, hidden. However, Shaw is not the
only one looking for the fortune. Her brother's ruthless
boss and the FBI are after it as well. Now on the run from
the feds and a notorious criminal, Jordie and Shaw must rely
on their wits-and each other-to stay alive.
Miles away from civilization and surrounded by swampland,
the two play each other against their common enemies.
Jordie's only chance of survival is to outwit Shaw, but it
soon becomes clear to Shaw that Jordie isn't entirely
trustworthy, either. Was she in on her brother's scam, or is
she an innocent pawn in a deadly vendetta? And just how
valuable is her life to Shaw, her remorseless and
manipulative captor? Burning for answers-and for each
other-this unlikely pair ultimately make a desperate move
that could be their last.
With nonstop plot twists and the tantalizing sexual tension
that has made Sandra Brown one of the world's best-loved
authors, STING will keep readers on the edge of their seats
until the final pages.
