HTML: His name wasn't Jonathan Mills, and he wasn't vacationing on the idyllic island. FBI agent John Miller was on the trail of a notorious female serial killer, and he couldn't blow his cover to anyone. Not even the beguiling Mariah Carver, who had unwittingly entangled herself in a web of deadly deceit. John couldn't deny that sweet, sensual Mariah was the woman he had been waiting for. Nor could he act on the passion that tormented them both. The daring lawman was poised to wed another woman: the ruthless Black Widow, who married--then murdered--her victims.... .Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

John Miller is an FBI agent who has taken the undercover case to trap a serial killer. His mission is to go undercover and attract the attention of the black widow killer named Serena. A woman who marries men and then kills them soon after the wedding. A woman who I couldn't help picture looking like the Debbie from Addams Family Values. Anyway, Johns mission is to marry Debbie... I mean Serena and then expose her when she goes in for the kill. Conflicts arise however when he starts falling for Mariah, the woman Serena has manipulated into thinking she's her BFF.
When I say this book is demented I mean that the characters were all seriously unlikable and the hero's actions throughout the entire book are extremely reprehensible. Mariah is such a flat character. She is a pure victim with nothing about her personality that gives her depth. She's portrayed also a complete angel. She swoops in and fixes all of John's personal problems, builds homes for the poor, and rescues children from trees. In between her acts of saintly-ness she bemoans the fact that she's divorced and is too tall. All this made her not only a dull character, but also pretty annoying to read about. For his part, John isn't likable either. His whole role in the book to complain about how he better not do such in such because it'll hurt Mariah and then he goes and does it anyway. Yes, he's undercover but seriously...
At the end of this book I was just left squicked out. I had the feeling that Mariah was only with John because she saw someone she could try to fix. And John was just a sad sack who put Mariah on some kind of pedestal. This book has made me leery about picking up a full length novel by Brockmann. ( )
