JESSICA MANN
KINDLE EDITION ~ $7.99
Rosamund Sholto is a confident, cosmopolitan professional woman, successful and well-educated. Yet nothing has prepared her for the awful realisation that her younger sister Phoebe’s “accidental” death in a fall from a Swiss mountain was not accidental at all and almost certainly engineered by her husband, the ruthless politician Aidan Britton who is only a heartbeat away from becoming Prime Minister.
Suspecting that Aidan has more than just his wife’s death to cover up, Rosamund goes on the run; with the press, the police, the security services and her brother-in-law’s private army of political enforcers in pursuit.
A gripping thriller of chase and pursuit, this is an updated, feminist reworking of John Buchan’s The 39 Steps and the first appearance of feisty archaeologist heroine Tamara Hoyland, who was to become Jessica Mann’s most renowned series character.
