I just love when there is a book that comes along that is so unique you want to tell everyone about it! This is one of those stories!
Not what I was expecting but great books aren’t always what you expect! Check out my thoughts on this review below.
Killers of a Certain Age by Deanna Raybourn
Publisher: Berkley (September 6, 2022)
ISBN-13: 978-0593200681
OVERVIEW:
Billie, Mary Alice, Helen, and Natalie have worked for the Museum, an elite network of assassins, for forty years. Now their talents are considered old-school and no one appreciates what they have to offer in an age that relies more on technology than people skills.
When the foursome is sent on an all-expenses paid vacation to mark their retirement, they are targeted by one of their own. Only the Board, the top-level members of the Museum, can order the termination of field agents, and the women realize they’ve been marked for death.
Now to get out alive they have to turn against their own organization, relying on experience and each other to get the job done, knowing that working together is the secret to their survival. They’re about to teach the Board what it really means to be a woman—and a killer—of a certain age.
Killers of a Certain Age by Deanna Raybourn Review
When I read the synopsis, I was expecting something light-hearted. But this is a full-on crime thriller with an espionage twist. Oh, don’t worry. The wit and fun are there too!
I love the main characters. Each one of the four has a unique flavor and adds such dimension to the story. Told from one of the main character’s point of view, in the past and present, Killers of a Certain Age is a fabulous tale that will keep you glued to your seat.
For those that love crime and espionage thrillers, this is definitely one to grab! I love that the main characters are female, retiring, and they are in a race for their life. They are tough, street smart, and amazing! The stories and twists that flow from this author’s pen are brilliant!
You will never read another book like this one. You seriously do not want to miss it! Let go and enjoy the ride!
5 Fantastic STARS!
