"exhilarating romantic suspense"
Following his divorce and his failure to help his partner
who is now dead, LAPD Detective Adam Ramsey has been
reassigned to cold cases until he gets his act together.
His current investigation sends him to Chicago where he
meets widow Jillian Sullivan, whose spouse Rob was murdered
in the Los Angeles area. Adam shows her photos of her late
spouse taken in Costa Rica after he allegedly died. Jillian flies to Costa Rica, but Adam is on the same
plane. They agree to work as a team though both have
different reasons to learn whether her husband still
lives. She needs to know the truth while he needs to
uncover the link between her husband and his dead partner.
As they work together in Central America, they begin to
fall in love, but neither comprehends how dangerous or how
deep international law enforcement is involved with their
inquiries. Linda Style provides an exhilarating romantic suspense
novel that keeps readers wondering whether Rob is THE MAN
IN THE PHOTOGRAPH until the end. The story line is action
packed, but the cast makes the plot hum, especially the
return of Jillian from her role in DADDY IN THE HOUSE.
Though the ending too neatly ties up the complex operation
that has been going on, the audience will feel satiated by
a strong intrigue. Harriet Klausner
