JERICHO'S FALL

Kirsten Potter's robust interpretation of Beck DeForde, Carter's unforgettable heroine, is a virtuoso performance. Beck is the younger woman for whom Jericho Ainsley threw away his career in the CIA many years ago. Now she tells the story of the explosive secret that foreign governments and powerful corporations want to squeeze from her husband. This thriller takes place in an imposing mansion, Stone Heights, in the Colorado Rockies. Potter reads with verve, as if relating events as they happen, and imbues each character with a unique personality. The suspenseful plot moves in fits and starts as the emotional depths of a failed love affair and a family destroyed by mistrust are revealed.
