Jayne Ann Krentzin viihderomaanissa ei tunnu olevan mitään järkeä. En pystynyt lukemaan kirjaa kuin parikymmentä sivua ennen kuin totesin että tämä on lähestulkoon lukukelvotonta sopppaa: Truth or dare (Jove Books, 2004; ISBN 0-515-13830-4).
Se mikä kirjassa mättää on kaikenlainen paranormaali aines, mikä sinällään ei haittaisi jos kirjasta kävisi ilmi miksi tällaista fantasiaelementtiä on tarinaan tungettu, mutta mitään selitystä saatika järjellistä juonta ei kirjassa tunnu olevan. Kirjailija pyörittelee tarinaa vailla päätä tai häntää. Ei minua varten tällaiset teokset.
Upscale interior designer Zoe Luce has found peace and contentment in Whispering Springs, Arizona. She has a thriving business, and she's settling into newlywed life with private investigator Ethan Truax. The threat that brought Zoe and Ethan together is finally over, ancient history, or so Zoe believes. Very few people know of her uncanny ability to sense the dark secrets hidden within the walls of a house, and she wants to keep it that way, even from Ethan. But someone is stalking Zoe - someone who knows all about her, and who shadows her every move. Is it the same person who is threatening her closest friend, Arcadia Ames, the only other person in Whispering Springs who knows the truth about Zoe? Or are Zoe and Arcadia getting tangled in a web spun by someone more dangerous than they could ever have imagined?
As a private investigator, Ethan is paid to find the truth, yet he has secrets of his own that are better left buried. He can't let the threats to Zoe go unchallenged, although he fears that the truth may be a bigger burden than their still-fragile relationship can handle. And Ethan isn't alone with his fears: instead of setting her free, Zoe dreads that the truth will only imprison her once more within her darkest nightmares, this time with no escape in sight.
