Thriller Crime
Gutsy, relentless, wisecracking Boston P.I. Fina Ludlow is back with her most
hard-hitting case yet in the critically acclaimed series by Ingrid Thoft. When soccer mom Liz Barone is attacked in her kitchen and left with a life-
threatening injury, Fina Ludlow is hired by Liz’s mother to identify her
attacker. It’s unusual for Fina to take a case that isn’t connected to the
family firm, Ludlow and Associates, but Liz was in the process of suing her
alma mater, New England University—a suit that could be a legal gold mine.
Twenty years earlier, Liz was an NEU soccer star known for her physical
toughness; however, a serious cognitive decline has soured her soccer
memories. She’s convinced that her aggressive style of play—and the
university’s willingness to ignore head injuries in favor of a win—has put
her health and her future in jeopardy, and someone needs to be held
responsible.
Was Liz attacked to stop her lawsuit, or were there other secrets in the
seemingly innocent woman’s life? Fina convinces her father and boss, Carl,
to take the case, and discovers that wading into the financially lucrative and
emotionally charged world of collegiate sports requires nerves of steel. As the
list of suspects grows and hidden agendas are revealed, Fina wonders if any
game is worth the price.
