"Deadly Dividends" is the original "plain cover" edition of the romantic thriller "Escape " by David Emil Henderson. This 2nd Edition continues the original book's title, but Internet search engines have had a tendency to divert inquiries to books about financial investments and 'Dividends.' - nothing this story is about But we kept this version for those shoppers who like blue portfolios, and we released a newer version with a whole different cover under the tiitle "Escape " - which better describes the reader experience. For instance: Have you ever had one of those moments, yearning to hit the road and just follow the sun? On Chicago's North Shore, in posh Lake Forest, Elissa Bennett Pope threw away a fortune when she couldn't stand being married to it. She was ripe for any escape - even one that wrenched her into the orbit of a man accused of murder. Architect Grey Harper denied shooting his corporate client over a $60 million project at the old Fort Sheridan army base. Whoever did that deed would target Harper next, he insisted - and Elissa, too, because she had kept a business meeting with Harper at the exact wrong time. Racing west on I-80 toward Harper's California cliff-top home at Carmel By-the-Sea, it seems impossible to evade an FBI manhunt joined by every law enforcement agency for 2200 miles. Even more ominous are "men without faces" from the Pentagon, intent on keeping all secrets buried. Against staggering odds, Harper is clever - maybe "too clever" for Elissa. If he's trying to hide from everybody, does a gorgeous companion become an attraction or a distraction? An accomplice or a hostage? And within her own mind, is Elissa's astounding beauty a deadly curse? All journeys must end. But this one terminates with a colossal bang.
