Catch a Falling Knife

About the Book

It´s the summer of 2001. Nadine Silverman learns that her ex-lover, Antonio, has faked his death and has been hiding in France for six years. She must find him within two months or they will both be dead. During Nadine’s search she´s followed by the Russian black market, a famous movie star, CIA agents, Chechen rebels, and her sister as well. Everyone seems to have an obsessive need to find the man who has loved and betrayed her. Nadine does find Antonio. It all comes together at a gypsy festival in the south of France. There, Nadine has to decide if she should help Antonio or take his dirty money and run. Nadine Silverman is strong, sassy, sensual, spontaneous, honorable and daring enough to ride on the thrilling edges of international intrigue. Hold on tight. Catch a Falling Knife is a roller coaster of a read. “Exceptional...very entertaining...dazzling...pyrotechnic...a real original.” Alan Rinzler, editor for Hunter S.
