Showing results for "a shock" in Women Sleuths

As Sid, Kiera, and Marge head home from a relaxing beach vacation, they get caught in the outer bands of a hurricane and are forced to seek shelter in an old motel along the Georgia coast. After a downed tree blocks the only motel exit, they find themselves stuck without power, cell service, or gasoline… but with a dead body.

As head of the FBI’s Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement Squad, Agent Lucy Guardino has a reputation for bringing the lowest of lowlifes to justice. But today is different. Because the man who has taken her prisoner has promised Lucy three things: that before this day is over, she will be dead; that someone in her family will also die; and that he always wins.

There comes a time in every hero’s life when they fall harder and farther than ever before, and they face a choice that changes everything: to give up, or claw their way back again. Lucy thought she’d made her choice two months ago when she sacrificed everything to save her family, but now she has to decide whether or not she can save herself.
