great thriller

Since her beloved spouse Ken died in the Oklahoma City bombing, Rae has tried to start over again, though it has not been easy. She returned to school and only last month graduated with a geology degree from Oklahoma University. When Nathan Greenwall, head of Renewable Energy Sources for the Conservation and Unity of Earth (RESCUE) Inc., read an article written by Rae on hot dry rock energy, he invites her for a job interview. That is why the thirty-eight-year-old woman has traveled over a thousand miles in the hope of obtaining her first professional job as a geologist. She is hired by the firm.However, her dream job soon turns into a nightmare as she and a fellow research scientist, Ashe Freeman, begin to wonder if someone is trying to destroy the large corporation, especially when an unexplainable accident leaves a chemist in a coma. However, the pair's paranoia is raised several decibels when a stalker starts following them with the obvious intent of killing them.No one scribes a thriller that could be headlines news better than Jodie Larsen does. Her current chiller, DEADLY RESCUE, is pulse pounding, non-stop action that must be read in one sitting. The characters are real and the frightening story line feels authentic enough to leave the audience in pleasurable shock. With this novel and her previous works (see DEADLY COMPANY and DEADLY SILENCE), there can be no doubt that Ms. Larsen has reached the sub-genre's lofty "C" level where the likes of Crighton, Cornwell, and Cook reside.Harriet Klausner
