Sally wondered how Jimmy could change from a sweet, tender loving and caring person into such a cruel, aggressive man. Before they married, their life together had been perfect; Sally truly thought she was living in 7th heaven. But what could go wrong – did go wrong. From the moment they officially became "man and wife" things turned nasty and the beatings and sick domination games soon followed. Then, as if her luck wasn’t bad enough already, she received a phone call, a warning to save herself...
Sally isn't just an average woman; she's a strong woman who will fight for what she believes in. Working with her best friend, Julia, who she trusts implicitly,
they try to oppose Jimmy's reign of terror. Not an easy feat, as Jimmy turns out to be a psychotic, murdering maniac!
The Deadly Thorn is a novel with lots of suspense and many frightening moments. Throughout all these chilling scenes Betty Sullivan La Pierre manages to give this story an additional romantic touch. I really enjoyed reading this book. I especially like the character Julia because she's so strong and doesn't give in when life gets troublesome -- the essence of a true friend. One who takes friendship very seriously and stands by Sally, supporting her during her weakest moments. Look out for the interesting Detective Williams, a driven man, who does everything in his power to capture Jimmy, with personal motives urging him forward. I love Betty’s writing technique. I personally understood Sally’s fear, as though I had been transported into the plot and Jimmy was after me! Once you start reading, you won't stop easily. I look forward to reading more from this author.
