"Fabulous opening police procedural romantic tale"
In the New Orleans French Quarter Claude Lafitte slept
with Claire "no last name"; the next day she is dead. FBI
Agent Akela Brooks accidentally stumbles on the corpse
while working a different investigation. She arrests
Claude, but instead of bringing him in, he abducts her as
he flees into the bayou. Claude knows he must take some sort of action to prove
that he is being framed for the homicide, but is not sure
what or how to evade the cops who will surely be looking
for him. His only hope resides with persuading Akela of
his innocence and that if he can do that impossibility she
will break law enforcement ranks to team up with him to
find the real killer. POSSESSION is the fabulous opening police procedural
romantic tale of the Dangerous Liaisons series. The story
line is filled with non-stop action as Claude finds
himself caught in a web in which his only hope to escape
is the law enforcement official Akela trying to arrest
him. Fans will feel the sexual tension between the agent
and the suspect as neither want to trust the other while
live complicates the matter. In spite of the specter of
the hurricane on the New Orleans' locations, this is a
fine thriller from Team Carrington. Harriet Klausner
