Unraveled

Daniel McAulay is fresh out of law school when he runs into Johnnie Wells. The man is brilliant and ruthless. When he walks into court, he comes armed with tactics as brutal as he is crude. Johnnie is used to running roughshod over those around him. Daniel is the exception. Their relationship is built on a grudging respect and a mutual understanding. Johnnie knows Daniel won’t compromise on his ethics and will walk if he pushes him too far. Daniel knows he is learning from a master. The uneasy alliance between them is destined to end. When and how, neither is sure.

It doesn’t take Daniel long to realize that every move Johnnie makes has a motive. Every action he takes has a place in the plan - even when he introduces Daniel to his ex-wife, even when he tells Daniel about the hours and hours of videotape he found of her with her last employer. The search for answers leads Daniel from the steamy and sometimes brutal corridors of bondage and discipline to the middle of a trial fraught with sexual betrayal. The sinuous web of control and deceit he discovers is one where everyone has something to hide and the answers seem to cover more than they expose. With time running out he turns to Johnnie, hoping the man can work some of his magic and help him find the truth. What he doesn’t know is that the truth will lead him to a stunning conclusion, one that teaches him how deep and dark the waters of seduction can run, and where everything he has ever known or loved will be put on the line.
