The Spy Coast

book contemporary crime fantasy fiction mystery thriller
"The Spy Coast" written by Tess Gerritsen.

Maggie Bird, a former spy seeking solace in the tranquil seaside village of Purity, Maine, aimed to leave the tumultuous past behind after a mission gone awry. Now, she spends her days on a chicken farm, keeping a low profile to avoid any repercussions from her early retirement.

However, tranquility shatters when a body appears in Maggie's driveway, a stark message from past adversaries who refuse to forget her. In her quest for truth and survival, Maggie turns to her local circle of friends, retired CIA operatives humorously known as the "Martini Club". Although officially retired, these former spies still possess skills that can be handy, eager to inject excitement into their relatively calm lives.

Adding complexity to the situation is Purity's acting police chief, Jo Thibodeau. More accustomed to dealing with tourists than solving homicides, Jo is perplexed by Maggie's reluctance to share information and her unconventional group of friends, always a step ahead.

As Jo's investigation intertwines with the Martini Club's maneuvers, Maggie's pursuit of answers forces her to revisit a clandestine career that spanned the globe. From Bangkok to Istanbul, London to Malta, the ghosts of her past resurface. With the support of her friends, and the somewhat unwilling Jo Thibodeau, Maggie endeavors to protect the life she has carefully built.
