Sobre este e-book
A battle of criminal minds leads to deadly attacks in the Gold Dagger Award–winning author’s thriller of “cerebral twists and sophisticated wit” (Time).
In the parlance of criminology, an “Able Criminal” is one who flies below the radar of crime syndicates and law enforcement alike. Employing no discernable pattern or method, he is virtually uncatchable—but that won’t stop criminologist Frits Krom from trying.
Krom believes that Paul Firman, the director of an ostensibly legitimate international investment firm, is a textbook “Able Criminal.” Surprisingly, Firman has agreed to an interview with Krom at his secluded villa on the French Riviera.
But amid their barbed exchanges, it becomes clear that the host and his guest are under siege by a third party, one whose motives and violent intentions are unclear. Now, criminal and criminologist will have to join forces in order to survive . . .
Send No More Roses was previously published under the title The Siege of the Villa Lapp.
