From the publisher:
Following her explosive series opener The Third to Die, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Allison Brennan is back with the second novel in her Quinn and Costa Thriller series, TELL NO LIES. Set in the sultry desert hills just south of Tucson, Arizona, the edgy LAPD detective Kara Quinn and the ambitious special agent Matt Costa are sent on assignment with the FBI’s Mobile Response Team to investigate the unsolved murder of a college activist that might be tied to high stakes crime in the desert Southwest.
Something mysterious is killing Arizona’s desert wildlife. When Emma Perez, a college-intern-turned activist, sets out to collect her own evidence, she too ends up dead. With local law enforcement slow to get involved, the FBI’s Mobile Response Team goes undercover to infiltrate the town and local copper refinery in search of possible leads. Costa and Quinn find themselves scouring the desolate landscape, chasing clues to something much darker—greed, child trafficking, a plethora of other killings. As the body count steadily increases, it's clear that the case at hand is an elaborate high stakes operation. Now they must figure out who is at the heart of the mayhem and how they can stop them before more innocent lives are lost.
Perfect for fans of Criminal Minds and brimming with complex characters and an ever-twisting plotline, TELL NO LIES is a compelling thriller that delivers. Brennan is a master of her craft and unravels her plot with purpose and controlled, hair-raising pacing. With a nail-biting mystery, an abundance of murder and crime, and seething sexual tension between Quinn and Costa, what more can you ask for in an Allison Brennan?
