NO ONE TO TRUST

Johansen's thriller draws on the intrigue and suspense of chasing after, and running away from, a drug lord for whom the ultimate exercise of power is to take his son from the one woman he could not conquer. Elena Kyler has eluded Chavez for years, and, just when it seems there is no further escape, Sean Galen plucks her out of danger and then finds himself unable to leave her to her own devices. As romance and suspense ensue, Bernadette Dunne's narration is intense and focused. She draws out the tension in the plot and captures the strengths and fears of Johansen's characters. J.E.M.
