Week 5: Assignment 3

I found the highly anticipated titles of 2013 to be most interesting--especially since I've been placing holds on many of them for customers for months. This is where I say "Oops! I should have this section MONTHS ago!!".

One of the titles that attracted me is Rage Against the Dying by Becky Masterman. It is the first novel for this author and falls into the crime/mystery/thriller category. "Rage.." is a character and plot driven novel about retired FBI agent Brigid Quinn who worked as an undercover agent in the sexual predators division. Now happily married to a former priest she is brought back into the hunt by the confession of a man to the worst unsolved case of her career. Just as the first time around when a young female agent disappeared, Laura Coleman,the new agent working the case, has also disappeared. As this case draws her in, it threatens both her new found happiness and possibly her life. Fast-paced and filled with authentic crime -solving details Rage Against the Dying has all the qualities of a great thriller. Readers of Tess Gerritsen and Lisa Gardner would like this book.
