Gary Foster is married to the woman of his dreams, Beth, and they are
going to have a baby after nineteen years of trying. Gary and his
brother Rob own a sports store. Rob is married to Sara. One day Gary
gets a phone call: Beth is in the hospital after passing out while
shopping. The doctor tells them Beth has a brain tumor and they can't
operate on it, and that she has maybe 5 months to live.
Gary and Beth can't believe what they are hearing. Both decide that
they will do what they have to to make the next months the best ever.
One day Beth passes out again and the news from the doctors is not
good at all. It seems that the tumor is growing. The doctor also tells
them that there is a clinic in Germany that has a new trial starting and
Beth is approved. The only major problem is the cost, which is
$200,000. Gary's sister-in-law sets up a fundraiser to get as much
money as they can to help with the cost of the new treatment. After an
advertisement for the fundraiser runs in the paper, Gary gets a strange
phone call from a man named Shamrock.
Shamrock has a deal for Gary: if he accepts he will get all the money he
needs to save Beth's live. All Gary has to do is kill a policeman. The cop
is a dirty cop who has been hassling Shamrock for months. The cop
wants a lot of money from Shamrock, along with a drug dealer that
Shamrock owes money to. Shamrock feels that if the cop is gone, he
can pay off the drug dealer. At first, Gary tells him no way, but then he
starts thinking about it and how easy it would be to save his wife's life
with one doing this one unthinkable task...
Wow, what can I say, I read KILLER
CHOICE in one day. I just couldn't put it down. I was trapped from
the first page until the end. Tom Hunt's book really gets you thinking.
Would you kill someone if it meant saving the person you love the most
in the world? This is Hunt's first book, and I have to say if the rest are
like this one I will buy them all. There are a few side stories, but these
do not detract from the main story. Highly recommended to mystery
fans.
“Terrific…full of shocks and twists you won’t see

The electrifying debut thriller that asks the question: To
save the one you love, is there any price you wouldn’t pay?
His wife is sick. He needs $200,000 to save her. A mysterious man offers to give him the money with just
one catch: He has to murder someone to get it.

direction. After years of trying, his wife, Beth, is
pregnant, and he recently opened a business with his
brother. But one phone call changes everything....
After collapsing suddenly, Beth has been rushed to the
hospital. Tests reveal a devastating diagnosis: an
inoperable brain tumor. Their only hope is an expensive
experimental treatment available abroad, with a cost that’s
out of their reach. And Beth’s time is running out....
Then a strange man approaches Gary and offers the money he
needs, on one condition: that he kill someone, no questions
asked. End one life to save another.
In this nail-biting debut novel of domestic suspense, one
man makes a choice that forces him to confront the darkest

willing to go to save the woman he loves.
