Description de l’éditeur
Every year more than a million women are stalked annually in the United States, which means that one in 12 women will be stalked in her lifetime.
Sheila Kendall will soon become one those million women. The daughter of a Navy SEAL killed in action, she is a talented Juilliard student who dreams of a solo career as a cellist. To earn money for an important upcoming cello competition, she takes a part-time job in a law firm. One of the attorneys, Julian Emory, immediately takes an inordinate interest in her. He’s good-looking, charming, and an aficionado of classical music. Soon he becomes her mentor, then her lover—and then the trouble begins. He wants to control everything about her from the clothes she wears to the tempo of the music she plays. It’s all too much for Sheila and she tells him it’s over.
But it’s not over for Julian. It’s just beginning.
On the advice of a NYPD detective, Sheila leaves town to stay at the isolated country home of her cello teacher. But Julian follows her there.
Suddenly, she finds herself trapped in the house. Or is she? A strange transformation takes place in Sheila. She morphs from a sensitive, gentle musician into, well, a warrior. Using the knowledge and techniques she’d picked up from her SEAL father and his friends, she methodically begins to turn ordinary household tools and items into lethal weapons and booby-traps.
But will it be enough to stop Julian?
This exciting thriller is a must read for any woman who has ever been stalked or who has worried about it.
