Love Potion

Book excerpt: Dr. Ellen Hallett searches for the secret to pheremone attraction. Trying to unravel the mysteries of what triggers desire and mating, she creates a method for mimicking pheremones, the biochemical aphrodisiacs of nature. As she struggles to control the dark side of her discovery, she and her young assistant become the targets of a military madman and a pornography kingpin, both willing to break all the rules to gain her knowledge. Detective Buddy Wescott races to save his daughter, Jesse, and track down two unrelated suspects, all the while aware that somewhere a madman is loose with a biochemical high explosive and the willingness to turn an entire city into a collection of rapists and victims. Robert Schmidt weaves a scorching tale of violence, lust, greed, and courage with every chapter a cliffhanger that never lets up until the final bullet.
