Iced

**Prepare for edge-of-your-seat suspense in this Thriller Short.

Originally published in THRILLER 2 (2009),
edited by #1** New York Times bestselling author Clive Cussler.

In this rousing Thriller Short from bestselling author Harry Hunsicker, the world was turned upside down when Tom, a middle-aged bank employee, decided to have an extramarital affair. Why? For Tom it was a need to press the accelerator of life to the floor. To be a man. To do things he would never even consider doing. The attraction between Chrissie and Tom was instantaneous. But an invitation to lunch leads to a high-octane ride that begins when they murder Bijoux Watson, a local drug dealer. High on crystallized amphetamine and heroin, Chrissie and Tom want it all, and Tom will stop at nothing to get it. Even if it means sacrificing his home, family, even his life.
