In Smash Cut, a murder in the film world ignites suspicion and intrigue as a defense attorney and a lover seek the truth, uncovering dark secrets.
In Smash Cut, Sandra Brown weaves a gripping tale set against the backdrop of the film industry. The story begins with the shocking murder of Paul Wheeler during a botched robbery. His lover, Julie Rutledge, is left to grapple with the aftermath and is convinced that Creighton, Paul's estranged nephew, is behind the crime. Creighton, with his cinematic interests, seems to embody the elements of a classic thriller: wealth, family drama, and a tragic death that unfolds like a movie scene. Julie's suspicions lead her down a dark path as she seeks the truth about Creighton's possible involvement.
As the narrative unfolds, readers are introduced to Derek Mitchell, a renowned defense attorney who initially believes in Creighton's innocence. However, as new evidence surfaces, Derek begins to question everything he thought he knew. The tension escalates as both Julie and Derek race against time to uncover the truth. Is Creighton merely an enthusiastic film buff, or has he crossed the line into real-life horror? The stakes are high, and the twists keep coming, leaving readers on the edge of their seats.
Smash Cut expertly explores themes of deception, obsession, and the blurred lines between fiction and reality. With Sandra Brown’s signature style, the book promises to deliver a suspenseful experience that keeps readers guessing until the very end.
