Tess Gerritsen – The Spy Coast: A thriller (The Martini Club volume 1)

A retired CIA agent in small-town Maine tackles the ghosts of her past in this new version of the spy thriller from New York Times bestselling author Tess Gerritsen. Former spy Maggie Bird has come to the seaside village of Purity, Maine, eager to put things behind her after a mission goes tragically wrong. These days, she lives quietly on her chicken farm, still wary of the repercussions of the events that forced her into early retirement. But when a body turns up in Maggie's driveway, she knows it's a message from old enemies who haven't forgotten her. Maggie turns to her local circle of old friends, all retired from the CIA, to help her uncover the truth about who is trying to kill her and why. This "Martini Club" of former spies may be retired, but they still have a few useful skills that they're eager to use again, if only to spice up their rather sedate new lives. Complicating their efforts is Purity's interim police chief, Jo Thibodeau. More accustomed to rowdy tourists than homicides, Jo is intrigued by Maggie's reluctance to share information and by her strange circle of friends, who seem to be one step ahead of her at every turn. While Jo's investigation comes up against the maneuvers of the Martini Club. , Maggie's quest for answers will force her to revisit a clandestine career that has traveled the world, from Bangkok to Istanbul, from London to Malta. The ghosts of her past have returned, but with the help of her friends – and a reluctant Jo Thibodeau – Maggie might just be able to save the life she's built for herself.
