Twisted Justice by Patricia Gussin

Twisted-Justice.jpgLaura Nelson has it all. But her seemingly perfect world shatters when she discovers her husband Steve, is sharing much more than a news desk with Kim, his sexy co-anchor. When Kim is murdered, Laura is left holding the smoking gun and her perfect life spirals into a perfect nightmare as Steve turns on her in the worst imaginable way.  In an all too real world where things are not always as they seem, looks can be deceiving. And deceit can be deadly.

Through her signature multi-dimensional characters, intense emotion, and exquisite plotting, Gussin has masterfully blurred the lines between right and wrong in this thought provoking novel.

"A thriller that would've made Hitchcock proud: an innocent woman caught in a tangled web of intrigue and mortal danger ... a novel as riveting as it is relentless, driving toward a climax that will have you burning through the pages late into the night. Not to be missed!" -- James Rollins, New York Times best-selling author of The Judas Strain

"Starts with a bang and keeps the tension going. Patricia Gussin is a pro who knows how to write a top-notch mystery." -- Stuart Kaminsky, Mystery Writers of America 2006 Grand Master

"Gussin wrenches emotion from the reader with a spare, objective narrative that draws its power from without, rather than telling her audience what to think and what to feel." -- Loren Estelman, award winning author of fifty-four novels including American Detective
