Heart of Ice by Lis Wiehl

Heart of Ice
By Lis Wiehl with April Henry
Published by Thomas Nelson

Elizabeth Avery has a Heart of Ice. All sociopaths do; and the scary thing is, they could be your coworker, your neighbor or your friend, and you’d never even know. Elizabeth is very good at “the game”, manipulating others to do anything she wants. Such is the case with Cassidy Shaw, Channel 4 crime reporter.

When Cassidy signs up for a fat burning boot camp at her local fitness center, she’s instantly in awe of the amazing instructor. After meeting over coffee, Cassidy feels as though she and Elizabeth have been friends forever, and is eager to introduce her to her two best friends.

Federal Prosecutor Allison Pierce and FBI Special Agent Nicole Hedges begrudgingly agree to take the boot camp class with Cassidy, never imagining they were in the presence of a psychopathic killer. And that was exactly what thrilled Elizabeth. She could fool anyone. She was at the top of her game, and all she needed now was to get her boyfriends ex-wife and kid out of the way. Once they were out of the picture, Ian would be all hers. They would be the perfect power couple.

It is with this ending in mind that Elizabeth spins her web of deceit and destruction. Intimidating an old friend into arson and then murder, emotionally manipulating a young lover into doing away with said friend, and cleaning up all the loose ends without guilt or remorse. No one would ever be the wiser.

Lis Wiehl’s Heart of Ice is a chilling look into the psyche of a sociopath. Bringing together the Triple Threat Club of Cassidy, Allison and Nicole to solve another crime, you don’t need to have read any of the other books in the series to follow this exciting case.
