Description
"Sharp's aim is dead on in her stunning . . . fourth book to star ultra-cool biker chick Charlie Fox . . . [a] crisp, original thriller." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
It should have been an easy one. After Special Forces training and a wee sojourn at a school for would-be killers, Charlie has a plush assignment: Baking her chilly British bones in the Florida sunshine minding a mogul's kid. But then the mogul-daddy disappears, Charlie's boyfriend/boss goes on radio silence, and suddenly she's up there all alone, the wind whipping as she stares into the drop, a scream rising from her chest, and all of it in a country where you can't get a decent beer.
"Absolutely riveting." —Chicago Tribune
"Intense . . . a nail-biting chase." —Cleveland Plain Dealer

Starred review from August 1, 2005
Sharp's aim is dead on in her stunning U.S. debut, the fourth book to star ultra-cool biker chick Charlie Fox. The no-nonsense, 26-year-old Charlie, a former British Army soldier (and survivor of a gruesome gang rape) has joined the protection agency of her ex-lover, Sean Meyer. On her first assignment, Charlie finds herself on a too thrilling roller-coaster ride in Florida, guarding geeky 15-year-old Trey Pelzner, son of Keith, a computer whiz working for a small software company specializing in accounting and data manipulation. After an attempt is made on Trey's life, Charlie calls for backup that turns out to be anything but and soon discovers that Keith—the developer of a faulty stock indicator program—has vanished, as has Sean. Action-packed, tightly plotted and with an irresistible first-person narration, this crisp, original thriller should win Sharp (Hard Knocks
, etc.) plenty of American fans. Agent, Anubis Literary Agency (U.K.)
