A Marriage to Die For

Jane Phelan knows the odds. Women who leave don’t always survive.

When husband Brock’s abuse turns to physical violence, she drafts a surreptitious plan to escape. She must outsmart her suspicious husband, a DEA agent with exceptional means to find her. With the help of financial resources, Brock knows nothing about, legal services, and a dear friend, Jane inches closer to her escape to a new life.
 

Does she have the courage? The odds are against her.

 This is a brilliant and powerful story. One I think many need to read, or even will identify with, or perhaps recognize in the protagonist a loved one or neighbor. Gerri LeClerc shines a spotlight on a silent but deadly epidemic in our suburbs and townhouses all over our nation. A prison with invisible walls, a velvet-lined cell.

With her desire to both warn and educate by the means of gripping entertainment, this tale is a beacon of hope for all whose lives have been scarred by domestic violence.

"I just loved your skillful writing and couldn't put the book down. I read it in a couple of days and didn't want it to end. You were able to take a very serious and all too common crime and make it somewhat more light to read about. I enjoyed each of your characters and became a cheerleader for Jane . . . Wonderful book and writing."
