{"product_id":"books-mission-canyon-by-meg-gardiner","title":"Mission Canyon","description":"Evan Delaney, novelist and legal go-fer, is dressed as Diana Ross in order to crash a fancy-dress party and serve a summons, when she hears that Franklin Brand is back in town.  Brand is the hit-and-run driver who sentenced Evan's lover Jesse to life in a wheelchair, and killed his best friend.  Since the accident, Brand has been avoiding justice overseas; but if he's back, Evan and Jesse are determined to get him, helped by the dead boy's brother Adam. Brand had been a high-flier in Mako Technologies, a cyber-security firm, and this is where Evan starts looking.  She quickly uncovers evidence that Brand was embezzling funds, and that Adam's brother knew all about it.  So maybe that hit-and-run wasn't an accident at all?Then the policeman investigating is killed, and Adam and Jesse both come under suspicion.  The plot has more twists, thrills and spills than a white-knuckle ride, and is complicated by the confused emotions of the main parties involved: Jesse feels a survivor's guilt; Adam resents the fact that Jesse is alive while his brother died.  But there are more corpses - including a near miss for Evan herself - to come before the bad guys are finally brought to book.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53510010994961,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780340822524.jpg?v=1778170303","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-mission-canyon-by-meg-gardiner","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
