These days, shes living quietly on her chicken farm, still wary of blowback from the events that forced her early retirement. But when a body turns up in Maggies driveway, she knows its a message from former foes who havent forgotten her. Maggie turns to her local circle of old friends―all retirees from the CIA―to help uncover the truth about who is trying to kill her, and why. This Martini Club of former spies may be retired, but they still have a few useful skills that theyre eager to use again, if only to spice up their rather sedate new lives. Complicating their efforts is Puritys acting police chief, Jo Thibodeau. More accustomed to dealing with rowdy tourists than homicide, Jo is puzzled by Maggies reluctance to share information―and by her odd circle of friends, who seem to be a step ahead of her at every turn. As Jos investigation collides with the Martini Clubs maneuvers, Maggies hunt for answers will force her to revisit a clandestine career that spanned the globe, from Bangkok to Istanbul, from London to Malta. The ghosts of her past have returned, but with the help of her friends―and the reluctant Jo Thibodeau―Maggie might just be able to save the life shes built. $c Provided by publisher. 650 $a Book clubs (Discussion groups). $x Fiction. 650 $a Maine. $x Fiction. 650 $a Murder (Investigation). $x Fiction. 650 $a Retirees. $x Fiction. 650 $a United States, Central Intelligence Agency $x Officials and employees. 650 $a Women spies. $x Fiction. 650 $a Spy fiction. 655 $a Thrillers (Fiction). 941 $a 2 952 $l SVPC124 $d 20240202131323.0 952 $l JNPC081 $d 20231227013858.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E221B7FCA48511EEB554F55F4FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
