The third instalment in the Dickey trilogy is a fast- paced story
that spans the globe, set in the steamy, seedy underworld of crime.
It features the hitman Gideon, a character who has captivated fans
in the previous two books of the trilogy, Sleeping with Strangers
and Waking with Enemies. Dickey explores this troubled character
and the violence of the world while simultaneously introducing new
characters - and new adversaries.
In this sequel to Sleeping With Strangers, the hunter becomes the
hunted when a hit is taken out on hit man Gideon himself. As he
struggles to stay alive, he must also deal with those from his past
- the woman who taught him to kill has been keeping secrets, and
Arizona, the woman he hoped to have as his own, has asked him to
kill her sister. The stakes are high and Gideon will need to find
out just who his friends - and his enemies - are, if he's going to
get out of London, and the game, alive.
Turnaround proudly present the first ever UK publication of New
York Times best-selling author, Eric Jerome Dickey. The latest
novel is a story of a marriage in decline - he works days, she
works nights. They are drifting apart in a relationship based on
stolen minutes on the phone at work and empty sexual encounters in
the bedroom. When she discovers his affair, she begins one of her
own, and the delicate fabric of their marriage is torn asunder. Or
is it? What follows is a sexy, searing tale of a couple at a
pivotal moment in their relationship, with a truly unpredictable
ending.
New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey presents one
of his most intimate and emotionally resonant novels-a story about
marriage, infidelity, and sweet and savage revenge. She works
nights. He works days. Their sex is routine. Their conversations
are empty. Something's got to give. It does, when she discovers her
husband's affair. The delicate fabric of their increasingly tenuous
marriage is torn asunder-but neither is prepared for what happens
next. An unforgivable betrayal is about to yield the most
unexpected surprises, as a husband and wife face a challenge of
trust, faith, and the staying power of love.... "Dickey has
developed a knack for creating characters who elicit both rage and
sympathy...The nameless narrator, a routine-bound suburban
Californian, learns of her husband's philandering ways. But this
dame is no hapless victim of infidelity: She takes charge...Dickey
taps the intimate emotions of a woman whose hurt we feel
viscerally."-Entertainment Weekly

Progression is advantageous; therefore I dare not suggest we return
to everything we used to do Back in the Day . I do however remember
the days when our communities included everyone from our family
members, neighbors, preachers, teachers, policemen, politicians,
and even the owners and employees of the local corner stores. You
see back then, everyone took a vested interest in the community to
ensure the neighborhood was safe and the children grew up to make
something of themselves. Their philosophy was each new generation
was to become better than the last. Times have drastically changed
however whereby our communities are now in a serious state of
crisis which has created a crippling effect, and led to the
diminishment of spiritual and moral values. Because of the crisis
we now face, it seems logical, and also vital, that we take a
moment to reflect, and perhaps even chuckle, on the things we used
to do Back in the Day that actually worked to help build stronger
homes, neighborhoods, schools, and churches.
It's love and bullets, Dickey style. The blistering new novel from
the "New York Times" bestselling author.
For Dmytryk and Cora, there's only one way to fight the recession
that's crippled their comfortable lifestyle: accept a crime boss's
offer to rob a few banks. It's quick. A nice big payoff. No one
gets hurt.
Good luck believing that.
