DRAWN IN BLOOD

Book ID/图书代码: 06830008B29948

English Summary/英文概要: Former FBI Special Agent Sloane Burbank has seen her share of danger. She’s faced down a serial killer and survived life-threatening injuries ... but she never expected that danger to invade the lives of her family.

Then her mother is viciously attacked in the posh Manhattan apartment her parents share and it quickly becomes clear that this is no ordinary robbery. The thieves were too clever, too knowledgeable, and so obviously after something of her father’s. But what could a respected art dealer have done to merit such violence? When a mysterious message is left for him, Sloane knows her father’s in over his head. Determined to find out the truth, Sloane discovers a deadly secret buried in his past that has made him the target of a power-hungry mobster with a lethal agenda and nothing to lose.

Sloane is desperate to save her father, but to do so she must hold onto secrets of her own—especially from FBI Special Agent Derek Parker, the man she has grown to love deeply. She knows she must tell him everything, but how can she betray her father’s confidence? Can a couple who’s faced so much survive this ultimate test of trust? Will they survive at all?

As the decades-old secret claims the lives of her father’s oldest friends and the killer closes in on him, Sloane finds herself in foreign territory: alone, facing escalating personal danger, and hunting a moving target in a world where memories are long and loyalties are drawn in blood.

暢銷作家凱恩(Kane)2008年的失望續作《扭曲》(Twisted)更多關注的是FBI特工斯洛安·博班克(Sloane Burbank)和她前同事德雷克·派克(Derek Parker)的愛情糾葛。中國三合會的龍頭老大目標直指斯洛安的老爸馬修(Matthew)以及他圈內的朋友,處心積慮謀劃多年,為的就是復仇。當斯洛安父母曼哈頓的公寓遭竊之時,德雷克和他的隊伍早就盯上了龍頭老大的罪行。馬修私下雇斯洛安保護自己然而卻不將過去告知費德和德雷克。儘管發生了一些小事,但是斯洛安和德雷克還是因為互相猜疑對方的隱瞞而爭吵不休。儘管,他們沒有隱瞞讀者。凱恩一開始就大量透露細節,只在最後留了一點完美揭露真相。

Reviews:
Bestseller Kane’s disappointing sequel to Twisted (2008) pays more attention to the romantic growing pains between FBI agent Sloane Burbank and her hunky former FBI colleague, Derek Parker, than the crime at hand. Dragon Head, boss of a Chinese triad, is targeting Sloane’s father, Matthew, and his circle of friends in a years-old revenge plot that hinges on a stolen painting. Derek and his task force are already on the Dragon Head’s scent for stateside crimes when Sloane’s parents’ Manhattan apartment is burglarized. Matthew privately hires Sloane to protect him while keeping the past hidden from the Feds and Derek. Despite a few incidents early on, the heart-racing action is relegated to Sloane and Derek’s bedroom—and when the two aren’t amorously engaged, they’re arguing about who’s hiding what from whom. They’re not hiding anything from the reader, though: Kane tells us too much up front, and little is left for the big reveal. (Sept.) ---From Publishers Weekly
