Product Description
Critics everywhere fell in love with undercover cop Grace Flint. Said the Cleveland Plain Dealer, "She's brave beyond words, troubled, stubborn-she's so real, and yet so larger-than-life, that she captivates the reader and never lets go. By the time you reach the scary, riveting, satisfying end of Flint, you'll be wishing its sequel were already here."
And now it is. Recently married and living in the United States, Flint watches in horror as the money-laundering investigation she is directing explodes before her eyes: an FBI agent dead, her targets flown, her own conduct under question. But it's nothing compared to the chill she feels when she realizes who the leak must have been. As it quickly becomes evident that none of the things she'd believed about the sweet, unworldly man she'd married are true, it also becomes clear that, with the man now vanished, her only chance to save her career and self-respect is to track him down herself. But that is the last thing that will be clear. For her voyage of discovery is just beginning . . . and it will take her to places far darker and more surprising than any she has ever known.
Written with stunning originality, this is in every way a superior thriller, signaling a heroine and an author who will be around for a long time to come.
Amazon.com Review
Grace Flint has international money launderer Karl Grober almost within her grasp when a young female agent she trained dies in the undercover operation that was supposed to bring Grober to justice. Someone gave Ruth Apple up to Grober, but Flint, second-in-command of the Financial Strike Force, can't bring herself to accept what the evidence indicates; that Ruth Apple was betrayed by Flint's own husband. Her marriage a sham, her career in shreds, the plucky Brit who made her debut in Eddy's well-received first thriller (Flint) vows to track Ben Gates down and make him pay for Ruth's death. But before she can, the traitor she loved attacks a target even closer to home. Flint's Law is a tightly plotted, smartly paced novel with an ending that's just ambiguous enough to whet readers' appetites for Flint's next outing. --Jane Adams
