Description
Keep calm—and shoot first. Red-hot action featuring Charlie Fox from "one of the sharpest, coolest, and most intriguing writers I know" (Harlan Coben).
For Charlie Fox, New York was supposed to be a fresh start. An ocean away from the brutal memories of her days in Special Forces and from the father who turned his back when she needed him most. She soon discovers that the memories obey no geographic boundaries, and the father turns up in New York, bent on self-destruction. Sure, Charlie has wanted to kill her father on more than one occasion. But she'll be damned if she'll let someone else do the job.
"Gripping . . . Sharp expertly captures the frenetic energy of New York without sacrificing her trademark British wit. Charlie is as tough as she is damaged, and readers will kill for the next installment." —Publishers Weekly
"Captures readers on the first page and doesn't let go—highly recommended." —Library Journal (starred review)
Praise for Zoë Sharp and the Charlie Fox series

        August 11, 2008
        At the outset of Sharp’s gripping third Charlie Fox thriller (after Second Shot
        ), the British soldier-turned-bodyguard, now settled in New York City and working for an exclusive close-protection agency, is shocked to see an interview with her father on the morning TV news. A prominent U.K. orthopedic surgeon, he is under investigation after the death of one of his patients. Despite a large rift between Charlie and her parents, she decides that she can’t stand by and allow her father to become a scapegoat for what she learns is a coverup involving a shadowy government agency and the testing of a controversial new medical treatment. Joined by fellow bodyguard and boyfriend Sean Meyer, she encounters some of the most ruthless criminals of her career as she seeks to exonerate her father. Sharp expertly captures the frenetic energy of New York without sacrificing her trademark British wit. Charlie is as tough as she is damaged, and readers will kill for the next installment.
