Publisher's Synopsis
Ben isn't like most people. Unable to control his thoughts, he's a man consumed by his obsessions: cars, tennis, marathons, trains, yachts-and Diana Hotchkiss, a beautiful woman Ben knows he can never have.
When Diana is found dead outside her apartment, Ben's infatuation drives him on a hunt to find out what happened to the love of his life. But Ben quickly discovers that the woman he pined for was hiding a dangerous double life. To her family, she was a sweet Midwestern girl who helped her brother get clean. But in the political world of Washington, DC, she was a manipulative go-getter who used her sexual prowess to get what she wanted. And now someone is out to stop Ben from uncovering the truth about Diana's illicit affairs.
In his most heart-pumping thriller yet, James Patterson plunges us into the depths of a mind tortured by paranoia and obsession, on an action-packed chase through a world of danger and deceit.
