In Blonde Bait (Black Gat Book #47) by Stephen Marlowe, 29-year-old ski instructor, Chuck Odlum, feels like sex toy. Odlum’s rich and beautiful wife, Inez, owns a ski resort, where Odlum teaches classes in skiing and helps to maintain the ski trails. But Odlum’s relationship with his new wife remains on the physical level only. He wants Something More.
The Something More turns up as ski resort newbie, Bunny Kemp. Bunny is a young blonde and likes men. Bunny first seduces the dog-sled instructor, Jack McCall. Then, she turns her attention to Odlum.
Odlum and Bunny begin a passionate affair, but Bunny offers more than sex. She confides to Odlum that her husband Orin has $117,000 in non-sequential bills in his possession: one of the missing bags of money from a recent New York kidnapping.
Bunny and Odium come up with a plan to take the money, avoid a crooked cop, and escape from the broken marriages they both are trapped in. But a massive snowstorm hits the area, and that changes the plan by introducing new deadly factors and dangers.
Blonde Bait delivers a crime drama full of erotic obsession, greed, desperation, and murder in one of Stephen Marlowe’s most intense novels. Blonde Bait will lure you into a story full of danger! GRADE: B+
