FBI investigator Ryan Hollister is
reluctant to help solve the mystery of Hayley Fordham’s
death. Hayley was killed in a car bomb and Ryan isn’t sure
there is anything he can uncover that the police won’t.
After seeing a picture of Hayley then visiting her home,
Ryan’s sixth sense tells him to help her even if it‘s just
attraction speaking to him. The first surprise is that
Hayley isn’t dead and the next is who might be after her.
Once the killer knows he didn’t succeed in eliminating
Hayley, Ryan knows he’ll try again. Everyone seems to like
and admire Hayley, so who wants her dead?
The instant and intense connection Ryan feels for Haley is
part pre-cognitive intuition and part plain old desire. It’s
equaled by his feelings of guilt though. Since losing his
wife to cancer, Ryan has led a solitary life, so his sudden
attraction to Hayley takes him by surprise and their
romantic relationship feels inevitable. Hayley is charming
and beautiful. She’s a savvy businesswoman and a talented
artist as well. She is a bit naïve when it comes to the
danger surrounding her, but she handles everything thrown at
her admirably.
Play Dead is
riveting and suspenseful from beginning to end. |
