Single women are vanishing and Guillotine is going to find out why!Jill Teague was a surgeon until a gang of vicious criminals murdered her husband and she was forced to take the law into her own hands. Now Jill has turned her back on medicine and uses the skills she learned in medical school to bring justice to those who prey on the weak. When she learns that women who have signed up for a new online dating site are going missing Jill swears to find out who is responsible and deliver her own brand of bloody retribution.'Hot Blood, Cold Heart' is the first in a new series of all action stories of violent retribution that pay homage to the pulp paperbacks of the past. Excerpt:The belt the Beretta was holstered on also carried Jill's weapons of choice, the razor sharp scalpels that had been her tool when she was a surgeon. Six of them were held in leather sheaths, three on each side just behind her hips. Whilst she loved the precision of the scalpels their short blades meant she also had to carry some larger knives. Those were on the belt at the small of her back, three finely balanced knives with six inch blades which were as effective at range as they were in close combat. Jill's final weapon was on her left hip, the fiendish combination of pulleys and razor sharp steel wire that had given her the nickname that was used by the criminals she hunted. Jill had come to love that name because she knew it struck fear into the hearts of the men she sought to bring to justice. The name was Guillotine. 'Hot Blood, Cold Heart' is a new short story from the author of the noir/sci fi/horror mash up Sunliner and a number of terrifying short stories including 'Dear Suzanna', 'The Doorbell' and the 'Camera/Phone' series.
