Beginning
Still Alive: A Lily Dawn FBI Suspense Thriller (Book 1) ~ by Ava Strong, 2022, thriller, 187 pages, 7/10Lauren clung to the handle of the water ski, feeling her legs loose and wobbly beneath her. In front of her, the boat soared through the crystal blue water, and Lauren looked down to see her feet each on a ski. She'd never done this before, and she couldn't help but tremble as she imagined a shark leaping up and sinking his teeth into her chest.
FBI BAU Special Agent Lily Dawn, half Dutch, half Hispanic, raised in the Caribbean, knows the isles like the back of her hand. When a surge in serial killers in the region prods the FBI to assemble a task force, Lily is the natural choice.
But Lily is reluctant to face the demons of her past, including her missing sister, and when a new serial killer strikes, leaving a string of victims tied to buoys, Lily knows she is heading right into the darkness.
When a bloated body is found floating in international waters, twenty miles out at sea, Lily Dawn is called back to the Caribbean. But this is not a happy homecoming. She hasn’t seen her parents since moving to Miami ten years ago, and now her sister has been declared legally dead.Can Lily stop the killer before he strikes again? Or will she sink under the weight of her past?
Word of the Day (or maybe initials of the day?)
When I read "FBI BAU Special Agent" (above), I had to look it up to know what it meant: FBI Behavioral Analysis Units work a variety of cases across the country, from terrorism and cybercrime to violent crimes against children and adults. They consult on new, active, and cold cases — working in tandem with federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement partners.
