New York Timesâ€"Bestselling Author: “Combine Dirty Harry with a loving wife and mother and you might end up with Lucy Guardino.” -- RT Book Reviews
Lucy has always seen herself as a normal Pittsburgh soccer mom who happened to have a job chasing the worst of the worst. But after a violent predator targets her family and she's injured, Lucy sacrifices her career with the FBI in order to keep her family safe.
What is she now that she's no longer a FBI Special Agent? She ponders the question as she begins her new job with the Beacon Group, a private consulting firm that specializes in cold cases and bringing justice to forgotten victims. Lucy fears she's traded being a kick-ass law enforcement officer for being a civilian mother hen shepherding a team of amateurs.
Her fears appear justified when she's partnered with TK O'Connor, a former Marine MP struggling with her transition to life back home, and sent to rural Texas to investigate a case that's more than cold -- it's already been closed, with the killers behind bars for the past twenty-nine years. But who really killed Lily Martin, her infant daughter, and husband? Why was an entire family targeted for annihilation? And what price will Lucy pay for exposing a truth people will kill to keep buried?
“Taut . . . Readers will eagerly look forward to Lucy's next outing.” -- Publishers Weekly
