The best by far of early RS!

This book is fantastic for the time it was written and genre - far better than most romantic suspense written today (and I agree, a crummy movie). Gosling writes with such a fresh voice, without the usual cliche of the genre - I love this book! Check out - Blind Spot - Romantic Suspense with environmental theme

Awsome read...

The story goes like this. Clare Randell, while relaxing in a park accidently makes contact with a "hitman" who has just killed his victim. She doesn't realize this and goes on her way. The "hitman" though realizes that she is too much of a risk and decides to kill her. After Clare is shot she meets Detective Mike Malchek, who is assigned to her case. Mike and Clare go on the run to escape the killer ... The rest of the story is about what they have to do to survive. Now why I gave this story five stars. This book was published in the 1970's under the name of "A Running Duck" but was re-issued in America in 1978 as "Fair Game." I purchased the book when I was only 13 years old and absolutely loved the story. I'm even embarressed to say but this story was one of the reasons I went into Law Enforcement. Clare is a tough heroine but you can see that the stress of being hunted slowly breaks her down. Mike has his own demons to battle and the authors ability to write about his pain and obsession in not only protecting Clare but finding and killing the "Hitman" is amazing. The ending is awsome.Try and find the book if you can. It has not been reprinted since 1978 so it's very hard to find. I had lost my original copy but was recently able to purchase another at a fair price....
