Kathleen Kent Livres

The new spy thriller by Kathleen Kent, set in post-Soviet Belarus during the 1990s. A female CIA agent must evade a serial killer and the might of the KGB.

Detective Betty Rhyzyk is up against a string of mysterious assassinations, an increasingly reckless partner, and her worst fear - desk duty - when she decides to go rogue... heading straight into the dark underworld of Dallas's most dangerous drug cartel.

Martha Carrier was one of the first women to be accused, tried and hanged as a witch in Salem, Massachusetts. Like her mother, young Sarah Carrier is bright and willful, openly challenging the small, brutal world in which they live. Often at odds with one another, mother and daughter are forced to stand together against the escalating hysteria of the trials and the superstitious tyranny that led to the torture and imprisonment of more than 200 people accused of witchcraft. This is the story of Martha's courageous defiance and ultimate death, as told by the daughter who survived.

Brooklyn's toughest female detective takes on Dallas in the first novel in the Betty Rhyzyk. Betty is as tough as the best of them, but she's battling a group of unruly subordinates, a persistent stalker, a formidable criminal organization, and an unsupportive girlfriend.

Detective Betty has only two weeks to take down her deadliest rival: Evangeline Roy, the matriarch of a ruthless cult. With the clock ticking down, it will take everything Betty's got to finally put an end to Evangeline's reign of terror, and to keep her beloved Dallas - and her own family - safe at last.

Betty Rhyzyk, die rothaarige, knallharte Drogenfahnderin vom Dallas Police Department, erholt sich nur schwer von den Verwundungen an Seele und Körper, nachdem sie der abscheulichen Meth-Sekte von Evangeline Roy entkommen ist. Sie ist unruhig, schreckhaft und unleidlich, selbst gegenüber ihrer geliebten Frau Jackie. Ihr Frust wird sogar noch größer, als sie von ihrem Vorgesetzten zum Innendienst verdonnert wird. Denn das Dallas Police Department hat Probleme: Ein neuer Player eines mexikanischen Kartells ist aufgetaucht – El Cuchillo, »das Messer«, ein besonders brutaler Killer. Und zudem scheint ein Cop Selbstjustiz an kleineren Dealern zu verüben. Noch mehr belastet Betty aber, dass ihr Partner Seth im Verdacht steht, selbst Drogen zu nehmen und korrupt geworden zu sein. Und dann ist da noch Evangeline Roy, die zweifellos auf Rache aus ist. Betty wäre aber nicht Betty, wenn sie das daran hindern würde, alle Probleme auf einmal anzupacken – und sei’s außerhalb der Legalität.
