Product Description
This book is from the bestselling author of "The Hornbeam Tree". When journalist Rachel Carmedi is kidnapped and murdered by a Colombian drug cartel, her lover and partner Tom Chambers, racked by guilt, vows to avenge her death. Ellen Shelby and Michael McCann want to turn Rachel's story into their first Hollywood movie. Chambers agrees to track down the killers. But his need for vengeance soon overrides their desires. In London, high-flyer Sandy Paul, helping to raise finance for the film, still harbours a fierce passion for Michael, and aims to remove Ellen from his life. Love, lust, jealousy and ambition take the stage with high finance, power and mortal danger. Torn loyalties, male pride and female desires turn the movie into a terrifying trap of death threats and destruction.

I don't think I've read a Susan Lewis book that I didn't like and this one is no exception. Just the right amount of twists and turns to keep you coming back for more, even when you know you should just switch off the light and go to sleep !! Good story, and brilliantly told.

Susan Lewis has done it to me again! Taking Chances is the second instalment in a story of Jealousy and Ambition. You'll be swept along on a journey that keeps you hooked from the first page. An adventure following the lives of Sandy, Michael and Ellen across three continents Murder, Revenge, Lust and Love touch them all. A truly absorbing read.
