Produktbeschreibung

Everything starts somewhere . . . .

For Casey Collins, that somewhere was the chillier side of the Iron Curtain one January night in 1986.

On a deserted highway in rural Poland, her VW slams into a wild boar. He's road kill, she's stuck in a ditch, and the temperature's headed down, down, down. To keep them both from freezing to death, the 27-year-old career diplomat cajoles Matt, her Marine guard passenger, into a double sleeping bag and climbs in after him. A night of whispered secrets and unexpected warmth propels Casey into an accidental relationship with fateful consequences.

A Macavity Award nominee acclaimed for her "sharp storytelling" (Publishers Weekly) in the Casey Collins International Thriller series, Diana Deverell brings you the short story where it all began.

Buy "Warm Bodies in a Cold War" today and meet Casey at the threshold of a sinister labyrinth of seduction, espionage, and terror that continues in the prequel No Place for an Honest Woman and the multivolume series beginning with 12 Drummers Drumming.

The three novels are also available in a single ebook, The Casey Collins Trilogy.
