A Twist of the Knife

Ex-FBI agent Brigid Quinn is back --- staking family and friendship to save a man on death row.

Heroes and villains --- they’ve all got family. That’s one lesson Brigid Quinn has learned during her three decades in the FBI, along with how to disarm a 250-pound man in under 10 seconds and single-handedly take down serial killers and drug cartels. And ex-FBI agents have family, too. Case in point: Brigid’s father, who’s just ended up in the hospital.

Going home to Florida is never a treat for Brigid, who greatly prefers her new life and husband in Tucson. At least doing so gives her a chance to look up Laura Coleman, a former colleague who was once nearly killed saving Brigid’s life. Today, Laura is working to try to exonerate Marcus Creighton, who is on death row for the murder of his family. It’s a famous --- and dangerous --- case. And Laura could use all the help she can get from Brigid.

As Brigid tries manage the drama of her father’s health, her vaguely accusatory mother, and her conveniently scarce brother, she can’t help but wonder about her own family secrets alongside of Laura’s client’s. Seeing is not always believing --- and what if Creighton is innocent after all? Isn’t the truth always hardest to see when it’s close to home? The case is growing ever more convoluted as new evidence comes to light, and Brigid and Laura must race to find the truth...before it’s too late.
