Mystery Woman Sleuth | Thriller
You have never met an (ex) FBI agent like Brigid Quinn
"Keeping secrets, telling lies, they require the same
skill. Both become a habit, almost an addiction, that's
hard to break even with the people closest to you, out of
the business. For example, they say never trust a woman who
tells you her age; if she can't keep that secret, she can't
keep yours. I'm fifty–nine."
Brigid Quinn's experiences in hunting sexual predators
for the FBI have left her with memories she wishes she
didn't have and lethal skills she hopes never to need
again. Having been pushed into early retirement by events
she thinks she's put firmly behind her, Brigid keeps
telling herself she is settling down nicely in Tucson with
a wonderful new husband, Carlo, and their dogs.
But the past intervenes when a man named Floyd Lynch
confesses to the worst unsolved case of Brigid's
career—the disappearance and presumed murder of her
young protégée, Jessica. Floyd knows things about that
terrible night that were never made public, and offers to
lead the cops to Jessica's body in return for a plea
bargain.
It should finally be the end of a dark chapter in
Brigid's life. Except...the new FBI agent on the case,
Laura Coleman, thinks the confession is fake, and Brigid
finds she cannot walk away from violence and retribution
after all, no matter what the cost.
With a fiercely original and compelling voice, Becky
Masterman's Rage Against the Dying marks the
heart–stopping debut of a brilliant new thriller
writer.

Re: Rage Against the Dying
This book rocks! It is about time someone came out with a
mystery/crime series for the older folks. A retired special agent for the
FBI, with a uncanny mind and perception to know how to find a killer,
then deal with the scumbags. She keeps in shape, is powerful
physically and mentally. I love this books so much I bought it
immediately.
If you are someone who loves the TV Series, Criminal Minds, Law And
Order, SVU and other Law And Order shows, you will love, love, love
this. I immediately emailed Becky Masterman and asked her when her
next one was coming out.
