In a war-torn African country, a mercenary slits the throat of a young
native girl.
Fourteen years later and half a world away in Sydney, Libby Daniels
staggers out of bed in her parents' harbourside home to see two men
crouched over her mother's battered body. Already in shock, she hears them
say 'Libby killed her'.
Terrified, she flees to Brisbane, where she hopes to find help from the
grandfather she hasn't seen for years. Brutally mugged on the city
streets, she takes refuge on the doorstep of Conor Martin, a man with his
own horrifying secrets.
Distrustful and suspicious, Libby and Conor are wary of each other,
until past and present collide in a violent attack that forces them to
confront their enemies … and their deepest fears.

"Curtis develops good plots"
Weekend Australian
"Fast-paced and
fluid, combining all out confrontation with subtlety and
even a romance crammed in there too, Until Death is a
compelling thriller from the opening page to the last."
epinions.com
"Queensland author Sandy Curtis continues her impressive run as a
thriller writer with the release of her fourth novel, Until Death.
Curtis arrived on the literary scene with a formidable impact
thanks to her suspenseful debut Dance with the Devil. It was followed by
the equally diverting Black Ice and Deadly Tide."
Gold Coast Weekender, 21-22 February 2004
"Until Death is a fast-paced thriller, with a twist of romance. This
is the fourth offering from author Sandy Curtis who manages to make each
successive book a little more complex.
A gripping read."
