Sinossi

A vintage Dakota aircraft should be the perfect setting for a peaceful sightseeing flight. But when construction tycoon Birger Bergersen is discovered dead in his seat—killed by a nail gun to the head—private investigator Olivia Henriksen faces her most challenging case yet.

Hired by the Dakota flying club, Olivia soon discovers that Bergersen had made enemies throughout Norway's construction industry. With nineteen passengers who all had motive and opportunity, the investigation takes her from belly dancing classes to sailing regattas as she uncovers a world of exploited workers and corrupt developers.

But when Olivia stumbles into a massive social dumping operation, the case becomes deadly personal. Trapped by a killer who's already claimed one life, she must rely on her wits and a conveniently placed manure pit to survive.

As she peels back layers of deceit in Norway's construction world, Olivia realises that some business empires are built on foundations of crime—and their owners will kill to protect them.

The third book in the Island Mysteries series featuring the resourceful Olivia Henriksen.

For Vengeance (A Morgan Cross...

Blake Pierce

This recording has been digitally produced by Blake Pierce, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. FBI Agent Morgan Cross faces her most elusive adversary yet: a murderer who delivers final verdicts to criminals in the act. To stop the bloodshed, she'll have to think like a criminal and weave through moral quandaries that hit uncomfortably close to home—a deadly game of cat and mouse where every move could be her last.

“A masterpiece of thriller and mystery.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

FOR VENGEANCE is book #17 in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller Once Gone (a free download) has received over 7,000 five star ratings and reviews.

Superstar FBI Agent Morgan Cross was at the height of her career when she was framed, wrongly imprisoned, and sent to do 10 hard years in prison. Finally exonerated and set free, Morgan emerges from jail as a changed person—hardened, ruthless, closed off to the world, and unsure how to start again. When the FBI comes knocking, desperately needing Morgan to return and hunt down a killer who seems to be obsessed with drowning, Morgan is torn.

Morgan is not the same person, no longer willing to play by the rules, and will stop at nothing this time. In a non-stop thriller, it will be a deadly cat and mouse chase between a diabolical killer and an ex-con FBI agent who has nothing left to lose—with a new victim’s fate riding on it all.

A page-turning and harrowing crime thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured FBI agent, the Morgan Cross series is a riveting mystery, packed with non-stop action, suspense, twists and turns, revelations, and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you flipping pages late into the night. Fans of Rachel Caine, Teresa Driscoll and Robert Dugoni are sure to fall in love.
