Genre: Thriller The young widow of a fireman killed after an earthquake in Damascus, together with her 5-year-old daughter, arrive home to find a stranger in their house. Martyn is an enigma, but imprisons Jennifer and Kirsty in their Bradwell home. When she discovers that he intends to assassinate the Syrian owner of the factory where she works, she does all she can to stop him. Then she discovers him sighting the rifle after the assassination. He convinces her that he was set-up and she gladly allows him to leave to trace the real culprits. However, terrorists have their own agenda and kidnap Kirsty. If Jennifer cannot find Martyn and convince him to take the blame for the assassination, then Kirsty will die in 24 hours. While continually trying to convince Martyn to go to the police, Jennifer and Martyn must avoid the kidnappers and police. They also find that British, Israeli, American and Syrian intelligence are closing in on them, each with their own needs to maintain Middle Eastern stability. Yet the terrorists have another goal – to release biological warfare weapons in London. Everything and everybody are against the young couple, who have their own secrets. Can they survive the non-stop roller-coaster ride of car smashes, explosions, gunfire, brutality and exhaustion for 24 hours to save Kirsty and London? Yet who is Martyn, and why did he choose Jennifer? Deserve to Die is a full-length, fast-moving and action-packed thriller.

Author's Notes: The time limit really works here because the pace is fast and furious. Even editing left me breathless! I wanted to keep Martyn as an enigma, and the way his character becomes known a little at a time throughout the book was perfect (probably an accident, unless I really am that good!). However, do we know what anybody is like immediately? Nobody can sum up their lives in a paragraph, and would always keep too much hidden, even from those they love. |
