In this "whip-smart thriller featuring a brilliant female protagonist, a finely-tuned plot, and some truly spectacular writing" (Cristina Alger, USA TODAY bestselling author) from the author of Leave No Trace, a high stakes crime triggers a woman's complicated and potentially deadly search for the truth. Nora Trier catches thieves. As a forensic accountant, she's unearthed millions in every corner of the world. She prides herself on her independence, the most essential currency of accounting, until her firm is hired by Strike. An anti-corporate, feminist athletic empire, Strike is owned by Logan Russo, a brash and legendary kickboxer, and her marketing genius husband, Gregg Abbott. They're about to host a major tournament with twenty million dollars in prize money, and the chance for the champion to become the new face of the company. But Gregg suspects his wife already has a new face in mind in the form of a young trainer. When the prize money goes missing days before the tournament begins, Gregg hires Nora's firm to find both the thief and the money--but Nora has a secret connection to Strike. Her partner pressures her into taking the case anyway, hinting he has information that could change the course of the investigation in a shocking and deadly way. A tense and unpredictable thriller, Strike Me Down "crackles with obsession, greed, lust, and plenty of ambition, and it's loaded with more twists and turns than a spy novel" (Kirkus Reviews).… (plus d'informations)

Raise Me Up. In some ways, this is your stereotypical whodunit, straight down to most of the action happening in some remarkable-yet-unremarkable Midwestern town with a coda in the Caribbean. In others, it takes some fun risks, even if most of them are off screen. All in all, this is arguably to CPAs what John Grisham's books - particularly his earlier ones- are to lawyers. And considering that Grisham's early books were perennially best selling books of the year through the 90s and even early 00s... I'm pretty sure Mejia won't exactly mind the comparison. ;) I had the ultimate culprit pegged somewhere between 50 and 66% through, though the endgame was a bit shocking and the epilogue even moreso. Excellent book, again, particularly for Grisham fans, and very much recommended. ( )

Great combination of CPA, forensics, and Minneapolis. All within an interesting and well told story. ( )

I'm not sure if I've ever been less engaged by a mystery/thriller. Characters and story line were flat. ( )
