After leaving the FBI, life should be easy, right? Wrong—not if you’re Lucy Guardino.

From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author CJ Lyons. For fans of Lisa Gardner, Tami Hoag, and Jeffery Deaver.

Lucy has always seen herself as a normal Pittsburgh soccer mom who happened to have a job chasing the worst of the worst. But after a violent predator targets her family and she’s injured, Lucy sacrifices her career with the FBI in order to keep her family safe. 

What is she now that she’s no longer a FBI Special Agent? She wonders as she begins her new job with the Beacon Group, a private consulting firm that specializes in cold cases and bringing justice to forgotten victims. Lucy fears she’s traded being law enforcement officer for being a civilian mother hen shepherding a team of amateurs. 

Her fears appear justified when she’s partnered with TK O’Connor, a former Marine MP struggling with her transition to life back home, and sent to rural Texas to investigate a case that’s more than cold–it’s already been closed with the killers behind bars for the past 29 years. 

But who really killed Lily Martin, her infant daughter, and husband? Why was an entire family targeted for annihilation? 

What price will Lucy pay when she fights to expose a truth people will kill to keep buried? 

Last Light is the seventh Lucy Guardino novel, but they can be listened to out of order. If you enjoy captivating suspense, intelligent storytelling, strong and vulnerable characters, and a freight-train pace, then you'll love this adrenaline rush of a heart-pounding thriller.
