Omschrijving

BEWARE: BEARING GIFTSIn the town of Thornhill, a man is found battered to death. Johnny Carter was a known drug dealer and pimp, and many said he deserved what he got.A teenage girl is near the scene of the crime, but only Sophie Curtiss is witness to her distress. She follows the girl and discovers she was one of Carter's girls. With much trial and error she is able to befriend the girl Alice, and actually persuades her to go back home away from the life she has been drawn into. But something more is worrying the girl. Sophie suspects it isn't just the murder of Carter. Alice hints at a stuffed animal which she has stolen.That evening Sophie receives an unexpected visitor. It is her sister Helen, the beautiful model. Helen is nervous and upset. While away on a modelling assignment her apartment has been broken into, but there has been nothing taken. Sophie invites her to stay with her for a few days, and that night someone attempts to open the boot of Helen's car. Helen tries not to show concern, but it is obvious she's frightened. When she suggests that her sister joins her on holiday, Sophie agrees. The holiday is a cruise around the Greek islands on a private yacht, the Socrates. It is owned by a Greek tycoon who also happens to be Helen's latest love.The yacht is magnificent, with every conceivable luxury, but who are the other guests, and why are there so many sinister undercurrents on board. A guest falls overboard, but did he jump or was he pushed?When the Socrates arrives at Piraeus, Greece at the end of the cruise and only hours before Helen and Sophie are to fly back home, Helen disappears. Where is she? What has happened to her? Has she been kidnapped along with her boyfriend? Why is everyone eager to keep the worried Sophie away from the authorities, and what is the connection between Johnny Carter's murder and Helen's mysterious disappearance? In her need to find her sister and the answers to these questions, Sophie finds herself in serious danger ...Later books: MURDER; PAST TENSEDEATH OF A FORGOTTEN MANDON'T PANIC ON WEDNESDAYSMAXIMUM GAINSTALKERS UNLIMITEDHOLY, MISTLETOE AND MURDER
