Presley French is young, beautiful, and someone wants her dead. Someone else—her former English teacher—wants to physically assault her. Someone else—the FBI—wants to interrogate her as a possible terrorist suspect. Someone else—Dani Ripper—wants to protect her, but can't decide if Presley is insane, or just crazy. With nowhere left to turn, Dani contacts someone else—Donovan Creed—who refuses to get involved unless Dani agrees to owe him an Ultimate Favor.

PRELIMINARY COMMENTS:

More action in the first few pages than any book I've ever read!

As always, I can't decide which of Locke's quirky supporting characters I like best: this time it came down to Bitter Bob, Stay Busy the Porter, and The Butter Man. I'm giving Stay Busy the nod, by a jellybean.

Dani has more pop culture references than an Urban Dictionary, and each one made me laugh. I would have bought this book for the rules of the drinking game alone, which I was ready for, after the dizzying action of the first four chapters.
