Smoke and Mirrors
The Gifted, Book 1
Marie Treanor
Book Description:
Deceit and desire, and a treasure beyond price...
When struggling
Scottish writer Nell Black accepts a one-off job with the police, translating
for an arson suspect from the isolated ex-Soviet republic of Zavrekestan, she
stumbles into a terrifying world of organized crime and paranormal abilities
that turns her whole belief system upside down. Faced with an incomparable
thief, hit men who spontaneously combust, gangsters, drug dealers, British
Intelligence and a fiery goddess, Nell no longer knows who to trust. The man
who saves her life is a criminal to whom deceit is second nature. He has more
smoke screens and more plans in motion than anyone else can keep track of. He
is, moreover, probably insane. Even his fellow gangsters are afraid of him. So
why is he the one man Nell wants to touch her?
Rodion Kosar is in
trouble. His convoluted plans all lead to one goal - the retrieval of his
treasure - and to achieve that, he needs Nell to believe he isn't the bad guy.
He has many reasons beyond his own desires to make love to her. Especially when
a plan goes wrong and he has to play dead before someone really kills him -
either the police, the menacing Russian crime lord known as the Bear, or the
powerful Guardian of the Gifted whom he's defied once too often. Nell's
burgeoning gift of second sight could be his best route to the treasure, and
yet keeping her with him spells danger. For Nell has her own agenda, her own
mission, and she could just as easily cause his final downfall.
