DEADLY DECEIT
“Deadly Deceit is quite the thrill ride! A deadly game of cat and mouse set against a backdrop of wealth, deceit, and a mining mystery. The engaging writing keeps you hooked from start to finish.” – P.
B.L. Cummings, a wealthy mining industrialist, wants his daughter Debra back. She married the wrong man. He’s handsome, smooth-talking Wesley Trouten, who is after her money once she inherits.
But Trouten is impatient and discovers a secret about the Cyclone Copper Mine he can use to make himself rich. Then a cave-in shuts it down, leaving one person dead. Was it just an accident, or part of a grand plan?
Enter Seth Bristol, a private investigator, who must see through the smokescreen of lies and deception thrown at him from all directions. Finally, his investigation discovers the ugly truth—two murders, and those who profited by having the mine destroyed. But it lacks the hard evidence needed to give to the police, so he hatches a plan that will get him the proof he needs.
As events unfold, he becomes entangled in a dangerous pursuit. One in which he must track down a clever murderer and save his own life, as well as the life of a kidnapped young woman he has vowed to protect.
Deadly Deceit is a fast-paced crime thriller with plenty of pulse-pounding suspense that keeps you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. If you enjoy books by Harlan Coben, Jeffery Deaver, John Sanford, Robert Parker, Robert Crais, Stieg Larrson and others like them, you’ll love Deadly Deceit.
