KILLER CHOICE

Tom Hunt

In this nail-biting debut novel of domestic suspense, one man makes a choice that forces him to confront the darkest reaches of his soul and betray those closest to him. As he's swept up in a nightmare of escalating violence, he must question his own morality and determine just how far he's willing to go to save the woman he loves.
The electrifying debut thriller that asks the question: To save the one you love, is there any price you wouldn't pay?

Gary Foster's life is finally heading in the right direction. After years of trying, his wife, Beth, is pregnant, and he recently opened a business with his brother. But one phone call changes everything....

After collapsing suddenly, Beth has been rushed to the hospital. Tests reveal a devastating diagnosis: an inoperable brain tumor. Their only hope is an expensive experimental treatment available abroad, with a cost that's out of their reach. And Beth's time is running out....

Then a strange man approaches Gary and offers the money he needs, on one condition: that he kill someone, no questions asked. End one life to save another.

Tom Hunt is an award-winning advertising copywriter, and KILLER CHOICE is his debut novel.

Although the protagonist falls just short of being sympathetic, the story moves along rapidly. Fans of Harlan Coben or Mary Kubica will want to add this promising author to their lineup of favorites.

With a premise torn from the pages of a psychology textbook and a furious cascade of twists, KILLER CHOICE is a lightning-fast ride that’ll keep you guessing until the end. You can go ahead and throw away your bookmark now. This is a one-sit read.

quote Brad Parks, author

A riveting thriller about the lengths a man will go to save the woman he loves. A twisting, spiraling ride with an ending that hits you in the gut and makes you think about love, death and the limits of forgiveness. A fantastic debut!

quote Jamie Freveletti, author

Recommended for fans of fast-paced thrillers that pose moral dilemmas (Lee Child, Harlan Coben, Joseph Finder). Ä real nail-biter.
