“A real page-turner. Very cinematic, easy to visualize as you are reading it. Kate Dawson wrestles with the conflict between police professionalism and her own erotic desires for a suspect in a serial murder case.” –Rosanna Tufts, The Tufts Get Going Syndicated Radio Show
“A great book on par with ‘Silence of the Lambs’!” –Galactic Books
“Way better than ’50 Shades of Grey’! –Janelle Wilson
Someone has a fetish for murder. A serial killer, nicknamed by the press as the “Angel of Death,” has just claimed her third victim in the upscale neighborhood of Pacific Heights. Inspector Kate Dawson, a beautiful but flawed homicide detective with the San Francisco Police Department, has one last chance to redeem herself by catching the killer, and put to rest the guilt she feels for the loss of her daughter who died in a senseless shooting with Kate’s own service pistol. But in the course of her investigation, she falls under the hypnotic, romantic, and erotic spell of John Monroe, a psychology professor with a penchant for mind games and an intimate knowledge of the BDSM community that Kate must penetrate to catch the killer. Within days of falling under Monroe’s charm, Kate Dawson’s world is turned upside down, and she finds herself not only fighting for her own life but also the love of the professor who becomes entangled with the serial killer. Written by three-time Hugo nominee John L. Flynn, Intimate Bondage is an erotic thriller in the tradition of the great Alfred Hitchcock, with a strong female protagonist, a clever but dangerous antagonist, and a series of unnerving twists and turns that build to the ultimate shocker of an ending. It’s what Erica James tried to do with 50 Shades of Grey, only with better writing, beautifully-developed characters, and a kick-ass plot.
