Opis

Larabeth McLeod has beauty, money, several patents, a Ph.D., a successful environmental firm, and some very old secrets. When a man with the uncomfortable name of Babykiller begins stalking her, terrorizing her with stories of her darkest days in Vietnam, she feels compelled to fight back...until he exposes her most tender secret of all by threatening the daughter she has never met. She turns to private detective J.D. Hatten for help, breaking five years of separation and silence between quarreling friends. And then Babykiller shows his true capabilities. If she goes to the police for protection, people will die. Lots and lots of people will die. And one of them will be her daughter. Larabeth and J.D. are just a normal man and woman, up against a babykiller. But then, maybe Babykiller picked the wrong people to play his twisted game... WOUNDED EARTH is the first thriller by award-winning mystery writer Mary Anna Evans, author of ARTIFACTS, RELICS, EFFIGIES, FINDINGS, FLOODGATES, and in 2011, PLUNDER. What People are Saying About Mary Anna Evans' Fiction-- For Florida Book Awards Bronze Medalist EFFIGIES: "We mystery lovers who've enjoyed Artifacts and then decided that Relics was even better may not believe this, but Ms. Evans has done it again, and Effigies is the best one yet. Again, she makes a lesson in our past a fascinating read."--Tony Hillerman, recipient of the Mystery Writers of America's Grand Master Award, and the Navajo Tribe's Special Friend Award, among many other honors. For Benjamin Franklin Award-winner ARTIFACTS: "It's always fun to discover a new Florida voice, especially one who can bring to life the rich texture-the sand, the sea, the moss-draped live oaks, the seedy fishing shacks, the salted boat culture-of the state's coast...the menace and the history are resolved in a hurricane of a finale."--Tampa Tribune For IMBA Bestseller RELICS: "A fascinating look at contemporary archaeology but also a twisted story of greed and its effects."
