What a great read! Taking a long transcontinental flight with down time in two airports, BL made the journey effortless for me. The time flew by in a blink, literally. A well crafted story with rich, gritty atmosphere, each chapter makes you change your mind who the killer is. Wonderful tension, both sexual and psychological. Highly recommend. Enjoy!

Two San Francisco sisters having a similar taste in men find themselves inextricably caught up in a nasty murder in the California desert not far from Los Angeles. One sister is accused and arrested while the other sister serves as her legal counsel. Only when the accused sister's husband tries to help in his wife's defense he comes to believe that the police may have arrested the wrong sister for the crime! To further complicate matters, the sister he suspects has become his lover -- and maybe things should just be left to run their course as is. Black Leather is an artfully written and highly recommended erotic and psychological suspense from first page to last.

Don't read this alone at home with only a candle flickering on the night stand.

This work of fiction will crawl under your skin as Elizabeth takes out her pen and lightly runs it up your back, to send chills spiraling down your spine. Elizabeth Engstrom is at her best with this story of life, death, and the quirks too many of us may have locked away in our closets.

I strongly encourage you to read this work of a master crafter, but please read it during the day, in a full cafe. Trust me, I learned the hard way.

In this dark, sexy suspense thriller Engstrom develops such complex and well-crafted characters that the reader is never absolutely certain of their true motives until the very last. Then it all comes together in a finale that leaves you gasping! Then you'll want to just sit back and have a smoke or something.

Elizabeth Engstrom lures the reader into a darkly erotic world that is often uncomfortable, but is never dull. In Black Leather we're seduced into the sado-masochistic adventures of two sisters. One of them is a killer, and it's the reader's job to discover which one.

Once you've entered the strange world of Black Leather, it's difficult to leave--at least until the book is done.

I could've read the entire story in one sitting, but I needed to savor. Engstrom is a master who creates tension on every page and in every sentence. Since I began my journey as a novelist, everywhere I turn someone is talking about the need for tension. Intellectually, I understand the concept. Reading Black Leather showed me what I couldn't comprehend. There isn't a wasted word, sentence or feeling on any page. I was hooked from the opening line and didn't have a clue about how it would end--even when I was reading the last few pages.

Black Leather by Elizabeth Engstrom is awesome indeed. This writer knows how to wield a pen and a blade.

She tells a fast paced and intriguing story that is sexy, scary, and psychologically twisted. The story also has one surprise after another.
I have locked the book up so it can't get loose.

Read it in the daylight.
