Book Review - Deadly Intent


Deadly Intent
By Camy Tang


This book is Camy Tang’s first published romantic suspense, following her contemporary Sushi Series, but I certainly hope it isn’t the last. She brings her trademark snappy style to this book, and cranks up the tension in a first-rate mystery that will have you turning pages all the way to the end.


The setting is a spa in Sonoma, California, owned by the family of heroine Naomi Grant. In true suspense style, the first chapter opens the book with a bang – and ends with a scream as Naomi’s search for a missing spa guest leads her to a gruesome discovery. The handsome ex-husband of the victim seems just as shocked as Naomi… or is he? Detective Carter’s shrewd eyes miss nothing as he investigates the murder. He doesn’t seem convinced by Devon’s protestations of innocence, or by Naomi’s. And the killer seems intent on framing Naomi, and isn't content to stop with just one victim.


A believable cast of characters, tightening suspense, and a developing romance make Deadly Intent one you won’t want to miss.
