FBI Agent Lucy Guardino goes after some of the world’s most dangerous predators in these 4 intense trillers by the New York Times bestselling author.

After Shock

As head of the FBI’s Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement Squad, Agent Lucy Guardino has a reputation for bringing the lowest of lowlifes to justice. But now the tables have turned. A cunning madman has taken Lucy prisoner. He promises not only to kill her, but also a member of her family. Lucy is forced to watch him play Russian roulette with the lives of those she loves. Wounded and unarmed, how can Lucy stop her own worst nightmare? 

Hard Fall

When Lucy’s perfect life was nearly destroyed, she sacrificed everything to protect her family. Yet now, still recovering from injuries, she cannot turn her back on a young girl who’s been found after more than a decade of horrifying abuse. Her mysterious abductor is known only as Daddy. And Lucy is determined to find him no matter the cost.

Bad Break

Special Agent Lucy Guardino is ready for a well-deserved break from chasing serial killers, child predators, and psychopaths. But nothing could prepare her for spring break alone with her teenaged daughter at a South Carolina beach resort. When Megan befriends a local boy who is accused of a brutal crime, it’s up to Lucy to track a cunning killer before another victim is claimed. 

Last Light

After a predator targets Agent Lucy Guardino’s family, she leaves the FBI for a private consulting firm that specializes in cold cases. Partnered with a former Marine MP struggling with her return home, Lucy is sent to rural Texas to investigate a case that’s been closed for years. But who really killed Lily Martin, her infant daughter, and husband? And what price will Lucy pay for exposing a truth people will kill to keep buried?

NEW! From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author CJ Lyons: 

FBI Supervisory Special Agent Lucy Guardino is ready for a well-deserved break from chasing the worst of the worst. She’s hunted serial killers, violent child predators, and vicious psychopaths but nothing has prepared her for spring break alone with her teenaged daughter in a secluded beach resort in the Lowcountry of South Carolina.

When Megan befriends a local boy who is accused of a brutal crime, it’s up to Lucy to soothe the ruffled egos of the well intentioned but ill equipped local police, prevent Megan from playing amateur sleuth, and track a cunning killer before Megan or her friend become the next victim.

Bad Break

New York Times–Bestselling Author: “Combine Dirty Harry with a loving wife and mother and you might end up with Lucy Guardino.” —RT Book Reviews

 Lucy has always seen herself as a normal Pittsburgh soccer mom who happened to have a job chasing the worst of the worst. But after a violent predator targets her family and she’s injured, Lucy sacrifices her career with the FBI in order to keep her family safe.

 What is she now that she’s no longer a FBI Special Agent? She ponders the question as she begins her new job with the Beacon Group, a private consulting firm that specializes in cold cases and bringing justice to forgotten victims. Lucy fears she’s traded being a kick-ass law enforcement officer for being a civilian mother hen shepherding a team of amateurs.

 Her fears appear justified when she’s partnered with TK O’Connor, a former Marine MP struggling with her transition to life back home, and sent to rural Texas to investigate a case that’s more than cold—it’s already been closed, with the killers behind bars for the past twenty-nine years. But who really killed Lily Martin, her infant daughter, and husband? Why was an entire family targeted for annihilation? And what price will Lucy pay for exposing a truth people will kill to keep buried?
