About this product
Product Information
A stranger in a deserted parking lot offers to help carry a woman's groceries. Is he a good Samaritan, or does he have an ulterior motive? A fired employee says, "You'll be sorry." Will he return with a gun? A man tells a woman after their first date that it is their "destiny" to be married. What will he do when she won't see him again? A mother has an uneasy feeling about the new many she's hired. Should he stay home from work today? No one is guaranteed safety from violence these days. But we can protect ourselves, by learning to trust-and act on-our own sixth sense about danger. Book jacket.

Fast shipping, good price. I may be mistaken but didn't see this copy identified as a mass market paperback because that's what I received. I don't buy those because I am getting old and the print is too small for me. Other than that, good transaction.
