About this ebook

When Stacey Westerman’s husband disappears, the rumors begin: he was too handsome for her, too successful, too perfect. He ran off with another woman.

But Stacey doesn’t believe it; she hires a detective to find out what really happened. Together they follow a trail that leads from passion to passion, death to death, shock to shock.

Who is this Lorelei, this woman no man can resist or deny? What is the source of her power? What are its limits?

And will ordinary love be enough to stop her?

First ebook edition of a 1993 hardcover original.

“A classic fantasy-as-nightmare of seduction and sexual obsession...fast-paced narrative and (a) powerful finale.” - Booklist

Mark A. Clements

From earliest childhood, Mark A. Clements loved both storytelling and visual art. With characteristic practicality, he decided he had a better chance of making a living as an artist than as a writer, so he chose to go to art school and relegate writing to the status of "hobby." Later, art degree in hand, he reversed his priorities and began his first novel. The eventual result was the sale of "6:02" to a mainstream publisher. This was followed by the sales of three more novels, all published in hardcover. Two of them, "Lorelei" and "The Land of Nod," went on to win their categories in the San Diego Book Awards, while "The Land of Nod" also took the Theodore S. Geisel Award for Best of the Best of all books competing that year. All four novels have at various times been optioned for film. In the interim, children and economics (which so often go together) compelled Mark to ghostwrite for other people. He also teaches writing courses at San Diego Writer's Ink, and leads workshops at various writer's conferences in Southern California. Meanwhile, he's finishing up a new novel, which he hopes to sell to a traditional print publisher as well as make available in ebook format. Speaking of which, he's thrilled to re-release his first four novels as ebooks. Featuring his own cover art. What goes around...
