Description
Ex-army. Current badass. Charlie Fox has some knowledge to drop in "one of the very best crime fiction sagas out there" (Chicago Tribune).
Who doesn't love a good British boarding-school story? Well, Charlie Fox for starters, especially now that she's been dropped in the middle of one. Einsbaden Manor, snuggled deep in the German countryside, isn't exactly Hogwarts: It specializes in training bodyguards, and it's in Germany because the British government takes a dim view of some of the techniques it teaches. With her military background and her intimate knowledge of how to take a punch, Charlie hardly needs the lessons, but she does need to find out why an old friend ended his studies at Einsbaden—and his life—with a hail of bullets in his back. And of course, there's a second question: Will Charlie figure out how to graduate without following her mate's example?
Praise for Zoë Sharp and the Charlie Fox series
"If Jack Reacher were a woman, he'd be Charlie Fox." —Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"Zoë Sharp is one of the sharpest, coolest, and most intriguing writers I know. She delivers dramatic, action-packed novels with characters we really care about." —Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"The bloody bar fights are bloody brilliant and Charlie's skills are formidable and for real." —The New York Times
"As action-packed and streamlined as the Suzuki the main character, a self-defense expert, rides. Zoë Sharp has an apt last name." —David Morrell, New York Times bestselling author
