Worth Any Price

by Jacqueline DeGroot

There's a serial killer in Wilmington. He calls himself The Voyeur. He forces women to do unspeakable things while he watches. His lewd demands are gthe ransom he requires for the safe return of their kidnapped children. Laura, a gently-bred southern socialite, must approach a stranger in a bar, lead him to a motel room and have sex with him knowing there's a camera concealed in the television recording everything.

Detective Kel Vain comes to Laura Wyndam's rescue when her daughter is snatched. he becomes the stranger this single mom must proposition and be videotaped with. It is a sexual episode unlike anything either could ever have imagined.

The women The Voyeur targets are single mothers devoted to their children, with nowhere to turn whe4n they discover that their child is missing and that he has them. Three men, in either the right place or the wrong place, are alerted to their plight and come to their rescue. By doing so, their lives are altered forever. Kel, Caison and Rand, strong men of good character, get much more than they bargained for when they step in to help three desperate women. As Kel spends his days trying to capture the demented killer, his nights are tortured by thoughts of the proper society woman that he made the most incredible love to.
