"I highly recommend this series " Ian Rankin
If the Army had known what she would turn into, would they ever have let her go?
Charlie Fox didn't really care who shot dead her ex-army comrade during a bodyguard training course in Germany. But when old flame Sean Meyer asks her to go undercover at Major Gilby's elite school and find out what happened, she just can't refuse.
Keeping her nerve isn't easy as events bring back fears and memories she's worked so hard to forget. And trying to blend in by playing down her abilities proves a real challenge.
She's going to need all her skills. There are secrets at Einsbaden Manor worth killing for, and some of the students have more on their minds than simply learning about close protection.
Subjects like revenge, and murder.
And what's the connection between Major Gilby and the spate of vicious kidnappings that have left a trail of bodies halfway across Europe?
Charlie expected training to be tough, but will she graduate from this school of hard knocks alive?
If you like strong yet believable female protagonists, who will take down the bad guys without hesitation but who are still human enough to care, then Charlie Fox is definitely for you. Readers have found books in this series action-packed thrill rides that kept them glued to the end, well-written, gritty, and hard to put down. Real page-turners. *Revised and updated edition
Author's Note:
This is Book #3 in the long-running Charlie Fox series. If you want to find out her backstory-how she began working with Sean Meyer after their time in the Army-this is where to look. If you're more interested in Charlie's career as a close-protection operative, then I'd recommend you begin with Book #4, FIRST DROP, when she and her teenage charge find themselves on the run during her first bodyguard job in Florida.
