Strings Attached - M. A. Fréchette

\nI can't die today. I don't have time for it, not with only one paper standing between me and my master's in journalism. But my meeting with my professor leads me on a wild goose chase that ends in a fake office with no way out-and a killer about to come through the door.\n \n\n \nA masked killer I've been digging into for the scoop of the century. Obviously, I'm getting too close for his comfort. And I'm in possession of a file that could bring him down, or seal my fate.\n \n\n \nWhat's an intrepid reporter to do? Leave him a voice mail to arrange an interview. I can't be the only one wondering why he uses playing cards to force his victims to choose how they'll die. In exchange, I promise to erase every detail that could lead to his arrest. \n \n\n \nSo begins my tale of an interview with a murderer. An interview that leads me into a dark, twisted, and strangely arousing world of blood, sex, and the mystery of whether my heart will succumb to his sensual pleasures-or his knife.\n
