(885) Dead Simple by Peter James

Our world is populated by all types of people. We often find crooks like Ashley and Victor fleecing the innocent rich. They do more than fleece, they actually murder.

It is a good thing we have Interpol and special database of crimes which crosses national boundaries. When a female has beauty, a shapely body, an above average brain, ability to act and a twisted nature about fooling the rich to marry her, then kill her new husbands making it look like accidents; suckers beware!

At the end of this gig, Michael (the intended groom) was lucky to be alive. His partner in business, Mark Warren died because his jealousy of his senior partner clouded his judgement. He was happy to believe that for once, a beauty preferred him to his partner. His dream was to have Ashley marry Michael, divorce him and give him a chance of having majority control of the joint business. He wanted so badly to be better than Michael that he was willing to resort to dishonest means.

It was sweet justice that Ashley and Vic died in the police cars chase.  You may think that I am quite a violent person. But truth be told, if they had lived, fancy lawyers would be able to either acquit them or plead a plea bargain for a few years' imprisonment.
