Karen Hawkinsin historiallisessa viihderomaanissa juonitellaan siinä määrin urakalla, että suorastaan ihmetyttää tarinan jotakuinkin koossa pysyminen: A most dangerous profession (Pocket Books, 2011; ISBN 978-1-4391-7594-1).
Monenlaisia salaisuuksia on sotkettu sekaisin siinä määrin että tarina hädin tuskin pysyy koossa, mutta kohtalaisen taitavasti kirjailija juonta kuitenkin kuljettaa.
For beautiful, seductive Moira MacAllister, the stakes have become terrifyingly high. Her daughter has been abducted and a priceless ancient relic is the ransom. Moira must acquire it at any cost, even if it means confronting the man she once duped and left, a man who still doesn’t know she has a child ... and that he is the father.
Robert Hurst, an operative in the king’s service, has never forgiven the mysterious spy who seduced him into marriage and then disappeared without a trace. Now, as he pursues the onyx box that will save his brother’s life, their paths cross again. But Robert isn’t sure which he longs for more—to satisfy his lust for revenge or to quench his relentless hunger for this bewitching woman.
