MEAN STREAK
Book ID/图书代码: 08525014B73090
English Summary/英文概要: Dr. Emory Charbonneau, a pediatrician and marathon runner, disappears on a mountain road in North Carolina. By the time her husband Jeff, miffed over a recent argument, reports her missing, the trail has grown cold. Literally. Fog and ice encapsulate the mountainous wilderness and paralyze the search for her.
While police suspect Jeff of "instant divorce," Emory, suffering from an unexplained head injury, regains consciousness and finds herself the captive of a man whose violent past is so dark that he won’t even tell her his name. She’s determined to escape him, and willing to take any risks necessary to survive.
Unexpectedly, however, the two have a dangerous encounter with people who adhere to a code of justice all their own. At the center of the dispute is a desperate young woman whom Emory can’t turn her back on, even if it means breaking the law. Wrong becomes right at the hands of the man who strikes fear, but also sparks passion.
As her husband’s deception is revealed, and the FBI closes in on her captor, Emory begins to wonder if the man with no name is, in fact, her rescuer from those who wish her dead - and from heartbreak.
Combining the nail-biting suspense and potent storytelling that has made Sandra Brown one of the world’s best loved authors, MEAN STREAK is a wildly compelling novel about love, deceit, and the choices we must make in order to survive.

而警方也因为“正在考虑的离婚”而怀疑杰夫,埃默里患有不明原因的脑损伤,恢复意识后却发现自己被一个有着黑暗暴力过去的男人关押着,而他甚至不告诉她他的名字。她决心逃离他,并愿意冒任何风险。
然而,出乎意料的是,这两个危险相遇的人都坚持自己的正义法则。争议的中心是绝望的年轻女人埃默里不能背叛,即使是违法。在激起恐惧而又激情四射的男人的手中,错的也是对的。
当她丈夫的欺骗暴露后,美国联邦调查局接近了关押她的地方,埃默里开始怀疑这个男人是不是没有名字,事实上,她的救助者就是希望她死的人——同时也极度伤心。
