Synopsis

New York Times–Bestselling Author: An FBI agent deals with a teenager’s death and a terrorist threat in one of Suspense Magazine’s Best Novels of the Year. It’s a vicious, horrific crime: the brutal killing of a teenaged girl. When Pittsburgh detectives call FBI Supervisory Special Agent Lucy Guardino to the scene, their focus is on who—and why. Was it the girl’s Afghan father striving to regain his honor after she became too Westernized? Her Jewish boyfriend? Someone from Afghanistan settling an old grudge? Or one of the many drug cartels the father helped the DEA bring down seeking revenge? The answers seem clear when Pittsburgh becomes engulfed in flames as a violent narcoterrorist turns the city into a kill zone. But in the dark of night, surrounded by men intent on destroying the truth, Lucy learns that secrets hide in shadows…Praise for Snake Skin: “Very well researched with most details spot on. It is a compelling story. The characters were real, to the point of reminding me of an agent who was every bit as dedicated, smart, and fearless as Lucy Guardino. I highly recommend it.” —Mark B. Lewis, Former FBI Special AgentPraise for CJ Lyons and her Thrillers with Heart: “Everything a great thriller should be—action packed, authentic, and intense.” — Lee Child, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of the Jack Reacher novels “Compelling . . . I love how the characters come alive on every page.” —Jeffery Deaver, New York Times–bestselling author of The Never Game “A pulse-pounding adrenaline rush.” —Lisa Gardner, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Before She Disappeared “Breathtakingly fast-paced.” —Publishers Weekly
