Deadly Deception

When lonely medical insurance professional and animal activist, Brenda Gunn, meets and marries the man of her dreams, it seems like a fairy tale come true. She is elated as she begins a new, blissful future with her romantic husband. But she could never have imagined that soon she would be swept into a vortex of fear, treachery and violence.

Here is the searing account of the nightmare of terror and confusion in which Brenda finds herself. Her house is set ablaze with Brenda trapped inside. Her animals disappear or are poisoned, one by one. Her car is run off the road and sent spinning onto the edge of a ravine. She is stalked night and day. Brenda fears someone is trying to send her a deadly message, but who? Is it the client whose sexual advances she'd rebuffed, someone she doesn't know or her husband who is becoming a stranger: passionate, caring and romantic one day; cold, indifferent and withdrawn the next?

Though she goes to the police for help, they are unable to do anything without solid proof and seem suspicious of Brenda herself. Even she begins to wonder if she is going mad. With no one to turn to and her life spinning out of control, Brenda, forced to take matters into her own hands if she is to survive, unearths a horrifying plan of greed and murder. But even she cannot foresee the violent climax to her mounting dilemma.

A riveting story of dangerous passions and deceits, Deadly Deception is as compelling as noir classics like The Postman Always Rings Twice, but with one ghastly twist: this shocking story is true.
