The Shadow Side
Linda Castillo
There is a dark side to every passion.
Dr. Elizabeth Barnes has devoted her heart and soul to
medical research…at
the expense of love in her life. But now—winning an award
for her latest
breakthrough drug—Elizabeth is at the top of her game, and
she wouldn’t
change a thing.
Until a detective contacts her about a recent wave of
homicides.
Cases of random violence have erupted across the country—
murderous acts
committed by previously non-violent people. Detective
Sergeant Adam
Boedecker, grieving brother to one of the suicide-
murderers, has discovered
that all the suspects had taken Elizabeth’s new anti-
depressant, Valazine.
First, she dismisses it as the wild accusations of a burnt-
out cop. But
after another mysterious death, Elizabeth realizes that
this intense, driven
man may be the only one who can stop the killings…and save
her from the dark
side of her work, her passion, her life.
With its “intense action, sizzling sex, [and] thrilling
climax” (Lynn Erickson), The Perfect Victim by Linda
Castillo was “a winner! I couldn’t stop turning the pages!”
(Kat Martin). Now, the award-winning author returns with
her most timely, and terrifying, novel of seductive
suspense…
