MORTAL FOES
Professor Maisy Andrus has made one too many enemies fighting for the individual’s inalienable right to die. The flamboyant activist is receiving unsigned death threats—and her admirers see a job for Detective John Cuddy.
It’s Christmastime in Boston. Cuddy can’t refuse the friend who asks him to become Maisy’s watchdog...and can’t resist seeing how much gas he has left by training for the marathon. So Cuddy hits the frozen pavement, and takes on Maisy’s world of righteousness and outrage, Beacon Hill privilege and fiery preachers. His client is not about to run from controversy, nor from the people who surround her: her handsome second husband, an overprotective bodyguard, a viciously jealous colleague, and an angry South Boston skinhead, all with motives to kill. As Cuddy moves closer to danger and the answer, he cannot know how treacherous the truth is—and which players won’t be alive to see the spring.
