Synopsis

Emerson Ward is in love. The kind of old-fashioned love that makes him want to carve “EW Loves JP” on a tree. He’s known Jessica Pearson for a long time. They almost made it work once, but she wasn’t ready. Now she’s back, ready for love, for Emerson. But just as suddenly she’s gone again, accidentally killed by a stray bullet that comes bursting through Emerson’s living room window. Or is it murder? The only way Emerson can get on with his life is to find out who killed Jessica, and why. He does have clue: When Jessica reappeared on his doorstep, one of her suitcases contained a quarter of a million dollars—in cash—and a pile of confirmation statements revealing a tangled web of stock transactions. His quixotic search for the truth leads Emerson to the Bahamas, Florida, New York and back to Chicago on a trail strewn with dead bodies, smuggling, missing persons and too many people who aren’t what they appear or who they say they are. All have something to hide and everything to lose if Emerson uncovers their secrets. And they’ll do anything to stop him. Michael Sherer is the Thriller Award-nominated author of 'Night Blind'.

À propos de l'auteur

Michael W. Sherer is the Thriller Award-nominated, best-selling author of Night Blind, the first in the Seattle-based Blake Sanders thriller series, which was also named a best book of 2012 by The Examiner’s “Miami Books.” Mike has published six novels in the award-winning Emerson Ward mystery series and a stand-alone suspense novel, Island Life, which was a USA Book News “Best Books” award-winner in 2008. A member and past regional vice president of Mystery Writers of America, Mike is also a member of the International Thriller Writers and the Authors Guild. He’s served as a judge for both MWA’s Edgar and ITW’s Thriller Awards. Mike first dreamed of becoming a bestselling novelist after taking a creative writing course in college from author John Nichols. He wrote his first book (an admittedly awful science fiction novel) in his senior year, but it was his third book that was finally published a decade and a half later. “Writing books,” he says, “is actually the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life, but also the most rewarding.” He hopes that his latest book might be the bestseller he’s hoped for -- tell your friends if you like it. Mike is working on the fourth Blake Sanders thriller as well as a YA thriller. Mike grew up on a farm in northern Illinois, and after graduating from college he lived in Chicago for 20 years. He and his family now reside in the Seattle area.
