LURED ONTO A YACHT...
Although Salem, Massachusetts, once echoed with the screams of tortured women, it has long since been a quiet New England fishing village...until one warm summer day, when the peace was shattered by the cries of a young woman meeting a grisly fate.
TRAGICALLY CUT DOWN IN THE PRIME OF LIFE...
Happily married, Martha Brailsford was a lovely, talented young artist with a big heart who agreed to go for a sail with her neighbor Tom Maimoni. Little did she know that beneath his mild-mannered exterior, and behind his tearful tale of losing his wife to cancer, Maimoni was a cunning sociopath and pathological liar who had been married to four different women.
RUTHLESSLY PLUNGED INTO THE SEA...
The truth about Maimoni would surface only after Martha's body-- nude, skeletonized, and with an anchor wrapped around it-- turned up in the traps of a local lobsterman. As tranquil, idyllic Salem reeled from the shocking, sordid discovery, women began to come forward with their own tales of Maimoni's lies and depraved behavior.
Told with chilling detail, A Scream on the Water is the frightening account of a beloved young woman, a sadistic killer, and a violent struggle that ended in death on a dark and lonely Salem night.

Annabelle Drake is a typical Midwestern girl; a graphic designer with a taste for motorcycles. Jack Thane is a wealthy British real-estate mogul with a part-time job doing something a little dark and shifty, and he also has a taste for motorcycles. Jack and Annabelle have been “just friends” for ten years. However, when Annabelle’s boss and love interest, Max Anderson, winds up dead, Annabelle finds herself turning to the very man she quite possibly should be suspecting – Jack Thane.
Max’s death wasn’t an accident, and it wasn’t a suicide, as someone would have the police believe. Max was murdered, just as his wife was murdered six years ago – and for the same reason. Directly prior to their untimely deaths, both had become aware of the existence of a miraculous cure for a horrible disease. It’s a cure that someone seriously doesn’t want to go public, and for the most insidious reason.
Jack Thane knows this. And though he didn’t kill Max Anderson, he does have some secrets regarding the state of affairs that he would kill to keep from Annabelle, because, frankly, those secrets might make her hate him. He couldn’t have that.
At the moment, however, he has no time to contemplate much of anything but keeping her safe. Because whoever killed Max Anderson is hell bent on killing Annabelle – and Max Anderson’s only son – as well. Jack must spirit the two of them away as fast as he can, dodging bullets and bombs in the streets of St. Paul, Minnesota, the forgotten tunnels beneath Columbia University in New York, and even the back allies of Sheffield, Yorkshire – England.
Hell Bent is an action/thriller/mystery with a good dose of Evanovich-style romance and humor and page-turning, jaw-dropping surprises. It has been read by tens of thousands of readers across the globe and received outstanding critical acclaim. Read more
