Payback: Book 3

by Desley Polmear

"Payback" is the eagerly anticipated completion of the trilogy of "Unlocked Secrets" and "Just Before Midnight" by popular writing sensation, Desley Polmear. Join Susie Russo's journey to discover whether she finally finds fulfillment in marriage and family or will her drive and ambition mean that she will always want more. Long standing simmering tensions ignite and fuel passions and paybacks. Bitterness and betrayal drive the desire for revenge - who will pay the piper for Susie's sins? Fate - that accident of time and place intervenes - or is it the fortune teller's dire prophecy made manifest? Immerse yourself in this gripping denouement of how love and fate resolve these issues. At any point in time our lives reflect the sum total of our life experience and colour our responses and behaviour. How will Susie respond to her challenges and how should we judge her choices? That is the moral dilemma and judgment call facing the reader. So, gentle reader, put aside some time and prepare to be transported out of the mundane before you start this compulsive page turner as you will not want to put it down until you have finished it.

Reviews

[Karen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Payback was the conclusion to this intriguing trilogy. Although, Desley was faithful to her main characters, they all got a taste of Karma, just as the title suggests, and some more than others. All three books have a fair share of love, bitterness, betrayal, and of course revenge. The two other titles in this series are 'Unlocked Secrets' and 'Just Before Midnight'. All three books are well worth reading as you follow the intriguing lives of Susie and the Russo family. Plenty of action and intrigue.
