Series: The Martini Club #2
Publisher: Thomas & Mercer
Release Date: March 18, 2025
A high stakes thriller with the perfect mix of tension and drama on every page.
Maggie Bird was looking for a quiet life after retiring from being a spy. She settles in Purity, Maine and tries to move on but her old life won’t leave her behind. She has a group of friends that have a past like hers and together they work to help the local police chief, Jo Thibodeau, in finding a local missing teenager. The case isn’t going to be easy with twists and turns at every new clue, Maggie and her friends are going to have to work fast in order to discover the truth before more lives are lost.
The second book in the Martini Club is a slam dunk of a thriller by Tess Gerritsen. Maggie and her book club friends are the perfect get away for readers wanting a good read to get away from the everyday life. As they tackle this new mystery Maggie and police chief are going to have to learn to trust each other and that isn’t always the easiest. I liked the interactions between these characters and the way they each used the skills they learned over the years to help the people around them. Even though Maggie wants a quiet life she can’t help but get involved when others are in danger, and she just might be the only person able to solve the case. This is a great addition to a fun series that thriller fans will not want to miss.
