An electrifying new thriller that brings back the complex, strong-willed, often-maverick FBI agent-Ana Grey-whom we first met in the author's stunning debut novel, North of Montana.This time Special Agent Grey is working on a kidnapping case-a fifteen-year-old named Juliana has been abducted in Santa Monica. Grey's counterpart in the Santa Monica Police Department is Detective Andrew Berringer. They've worked together before-and they've been more than just working together ever since.It's Ana's job "to know the victim as if she were my own flesh and blood." But when Juliana turns up-traumatized into a state of total and paralyzing terror-it becomes clear that Ana has gone too far: she is viewing her own life from the perspective of Juliana's blasted emotional terrain. And in a moment of passion (Andrew has betrayed her) and panic (is it possible that he also means to harm her?) Ana points a gun at him and shoots.Now she is both criminal investigator and criminal as she breaks her bail agreement to continue tracking the abductor, torn between her powerful emotional connection with Juliana and the fraying connection she has to her own common sense and to the truths she knows about Andrew-and about herself.Psychologically acute and unstoppably suspenseful-Good Morning, Killer is a searing, addictive read.
