A dying billionaire hires private investigators Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro to retrieve his beautiful, grieving daughter from an exploitative cult, luring them into a world of ubiquitous deception and danger. Reprint.
EXPOSURE BEHIND CLOSED DOORS is centered around one earth-shattering week in the life of New Orleans Police Lieutenant, Grieco Storm. A police detective whose passions and convictions run as deep and sizzling as the sultry city he is bound by duty and honor to protect. The discovery of arsenic found in the blood-systems of two International Super Models, Johna Bauer and Ursula Rhee; initially ruled accidental prescription drug overdoses by the city's shady coroner, is what initiated a secret branch of the Justice Department to get involved. Not only was the State of Louisiana suddenly faced with the very real possibility of a serial killer being on the loose in their Historical City, but it was suddenly faced with a potential scandal of such magnitude that it could rock New Orleans back several decades, politically, on its ear!
No bargain as enticing as... When Emma Fitzgerald storms the manor home of the new Viscount Wakefield, she feels more than justified fury. Having just inadvertently witnessed his lordship in scandalous dishabille with his London mistress, her blood pounds with outrage...and with a thrill she has never felt. She has come to demand better treatment for his tenants, to seek some compassion, a shred of decency from this dastardly rake whose reputation for sin and debauchery precedes him. Now, the erotic image of his powerful flesh only heightens her determination to make this wicked rogue accountable for his actions... One sealed with a kiss... Certainly no woman has ever dared to take John Clayton to task as though he is a naughty schoolboy, and no woman, especially one as enticing as Emma, ever has refused to be baited by his bold, assessing gaze. Instead she seems to look beneath his skin to see more than a scandalous rake. But this prim and proper Vicar's daughter leaves him speechless when she proposes a bargain worthy of his own insolence. In return for his kindness to others, she offers herself. Vowing to regain the upper hand, John brazenly sets out to introduce Emma into the art of love-heedless of the consequences to his own heart...
