Books like The Stars Are on Our Side

The title sounds hopeful. The book is not. The Stars Are on Our Side brings an abduction, a locked room and a killer who wants her, and gives none of it a soft edge. Hopeless in mood, graphic in heat. I would only point this at seasoned readers. If that is you, it is a strange, gripping ride. Warnings first.
