  As World War II rages in Europe and in the Pacific, the small town of Progress is doing its part for the soldiers in the field with a war bond drive at the annual county fair. Town gossip Ava Dempsey starts a rumor that Clark Gable will be among the participating stars. Instead of Gable, though, the headliner is Freddie Harrison, a B-movie star. When Freddie turns up dead in the dunk tank, Irene Ingram, editor-in-chief of The Progress Herald, starts chasing the real headline. There are plenty of suspects and little evidence. Ava’s sister Angel, who was married to the dead actor, is the most obvious. The couple had argued about his affair with the young starlet Belinda Fox, and Angel was the last person to see Freddie alive. But Irene discovers there’s more than one person who might have wanted Freddie dead. As she draws on her well-honed reporter’s instincts to find the killer, nothing is what it seems in Progress—and now her own deadline could be right around the corner.

  Absolute Dark & Seductive | Spicy • A first-class page-turner that blurs the lines between passion, love & danger in a frightening way 
  "This is the third part of the absolutely erotic psycho-thriller trilogy by Robin Rafferty Paxton." 
  Forget everything you thought you knew about psychological thrillers. With "Absolutely Abysmal and Seductive" Part 3 of the trilogy, Robin Rafferty Paxton has created a work that pulls like a suction into the darkest corners of the human psyche - and only lets you go again when you have turned the last page... and even then, it won't let you go. He gets by without bloody scenes! 
  Even the title is a promise – and Paxton keeps it. This book is absolutely abysmal. It dives into depths you didn't know existed. It winds through a labyrinth of lies, obsessions, and hidden desires where nothing is as it seems. And it is seductive. Not only in the obvious sense – although the attraction between the characters is almost tangible – but also in the way Paxton builds the tension, how he plays with our expectations, how he pulls us deeper and deeper into the vortex. 
  The language is precise and atmospheric, the descriptions are so vivid that you can literally feel the settings, the smell of danger and the subliminal eroticism . "Absolutely Abysmal and Seductive" is not a book for the faint of heart. It's a psychological thriller that gets under your skin and captivates you at the same time. It is a book that will make you question your own abysses. 
  Read it at your own risk. But read it! 
  Warning: Not suitable for under 18s.
