| Death of Rapunzel, by Robin Knowles |
|
 |
He's never forgiven God-or is it Satan-for the theft and subsequent deception that left him scarred and alone. Thirty years on, Garrett is hard, cynical, and dogmatically focused. He's a strategic genius who's moved wall street, major manufacturing companies and small countries into the success column; now he's a millionaire on the run.
She has no plan whatsoever; she simply seizes a momentary opportunity to slide out of her silken noose, and into his boat. She stows away undetected, just hours before he slips away into the night. Her life depends on it. There's love, but this is not a love story. Hints of alternative sexuality tease us, for each has a past that conditions them, but from different ends of the whip. Death of Rapunzel is first a modern day thriller suspense novel, then a love story. |
