Romantic Suspense
Forensic sculptor Even Duncan is still
obsessed with the disappearance of her daughter, Bonnie.
How can she find closure when no remains have ever been
found? Now, a killer is taunting her with promises of
information that will lead her to Bonnie. Even if he is
lying, he is still on the prowl, injuring innocent
children. By all means, he needs to be stopped. Eve
enlists the clairvoyant skills of Dr. Megan Blair to
help her find the answers. But at what cost to Meg?
Could Bonnie still be alive? Will they find her? Or will
the two men who claim to love Eve be the ones to save
her from more danger?
QUICKSAND is like visiting an old friend. Eve is on
another quest, in hopes of bring Bonnie home this time.
But her long time lover Joe is at his wits end. He is
tired of watching Eve run herself ragged over false
leads and down empty trails. So is her adopted daughter,
Jane, but neither has the strength to deny her the
knowledge of what happened to Bonnie. When Eve is
contacted by serial killer, Kistle, she believes he has
something she wants. The place where her Bonnie is
buried. But as Kistle leads them all on a deadly goose
chase, killing others in his wake, she begins to doubt
him. And herself. For Joe has said he will not go on
like this. That his love for her is great, but his worry
over her obsession with Bonnie is bigger than he can get
over. Will this be the answer they have been searching
for? Will Bonnie be found so that Eve and Joe can
finally move on? Their love has been so solid in the
past, but now you can see cracks where it may crumble.
Will another man who loves Eve be able to move in on
her? To take her as his own? Leaving Joe out in the
cold? Only the swamp knows the answer.
Iris Johansen is an amazing writer with a knack for
making her characters jump off the pages and into your
home. I love her Eve Duncan stories and hope to read
many more of them. QUICKSAND is a fast paced thriller
that will make you lock your doors and sleep with a
light on!
