The Cove

The hard-charging thriller that launched Catherine Coulter's bestselling FBI series-now in hardcover for the first time. Sally St. John Brainerd is on the run from the authorities, who want to question her about her possible involvement in her father's murder. FBI Special Agent James Quinlan goes undercover in the picturesque town of The Cove-home of the World's Greatest Ice Cream-where Sally seeks sanctuary. But The Cove and its elderly residents harbor sinister secrets of their own. After Quinlan and Sally discover two dead bodies, Sally vanishes, and Quinlan turns to his partner Dillon Savich to rescue her from a place where no one should be held. Quinlan discovers she is indeed the key to a murder-but whose murder? Dear Reader: The Cove is a quaint little postcard town made up only of old folk who sell the World's Greatest Ice Cream--a secret recipe that brings lots of tourists into town. Into The Cove comes Sally Brainerd, daughter of murdered Amory St. John of Washington, D.C., seeking sanctuary, and FBI Special Agent James Quinlan who's undercover and after her. He's got a murder to solve, and he believes she's the key. But is she really? Are you ready to strap yourself in for nonstop romantic suspense? I'm going to scare you; treat you to mysteries that will, hopefully, confound you; and have you smiling and nodding at an unlikely love story between two of the neatest people you'll ever meet. Grab hold tight and come into a world where illusion becomes reality and truth is a disguise. Let me know what you think of this contemporary, a novel I really enjoyed writing. Yes, I scared myself a couple of times. Catherine Coulter FBI - 1
