Overview

"She is supposed to be dog-sitting, not leading the resistance, but what's a girl to do when her housing estate turns into an urban battlefield? No good deed goes unpunished. That's what Charlie Fox discovers when she agrees to dog-sit for a friend, only to find the woman's housing estate being terrorised by violent gangs. Desperate and frightened, the residents have hired a freelance ""security"" firm, whose bully-boy tactics aren't a whole lot more appealing. With her motorbike on hand and a big dog by her side, Charlie is more than able to take care of herself, until a ghost from her Army past comes calling. Someone she was trying very hard to forget. To save the locals of the Lavender Gardens estate-not to mention her own skin-Charlie's going to have to learn to trust somebody. And that's going to be a tough lesson. Trust has never been her strong suit. If you like strong yet believable female protagonists, who will take down the bad guys without hesitation but who are still human enough to care, then Charlie Fox is definitely for you. Readers have found this second instalment well-written, gritty, and hard to put down. A real page turner. *Revised and updated edition Author's Note: This is Book #2 in the long-running Charlie Fox series. If you want to find out her backstory-how she reconnected with Sean Meyer after their time in the Army-this is where to look. If you're more interested in Charlie's career as a close-protection operative, then I'd recommend you begin with either Book #3, HARD KNOCKS, when she's undergoing bodyguard training at a school in Germany. Or when her new job starts with a bang in Book #4, FIRST DROP, when she and her teenage charge find themselves on the run in Florida."

PRAISE FOR ZOE SHARP AND CHARLIE FOX * The bloody bar fights are bloody brilliant and Charlie's skills are formidable and for real. Marilyn Stasio, New York Times * Charlotte (Charlie) Fox could give Cotton Malone a run for his money, but I think he'd enjoy every minute of it. Steve Berry * Male and female crime fiction readers alike will find Sharp's writing style addictively readable-one of the very best crime fiction sagas out there. Paul Goat Allen, Chicago Tribune * I highly recommend this series! Ian Rankin * Sharp's heroine Charlie Fox has to be one of the best characters in the crime thriller genre. Graham Smith, crimesquad * Zoe Sharp is one of the sharpest, coolest, and most intriguing writers I know. She delivers dramatic, action-packed novels with characters we really care about. Harlan Coben * This is the follow-up to Sharp's exceptionally sharp debut last year... It's hard to believe this is only her second crime book-she makes it all seem so effortless. Yorkshire Post * Breathlessly compelling and utterly real, this novel will keep you turning pages till dawn. Charlie Fox is simply the best. Jeffery Deaver READER REVIEWS * Gritty down to earth, set in places that appear realistic of today's society. Once you have read this book you will be looking for the rest of the Charlie Fox books. * Character development, relationships between estranged daughter and father and between former lovers are explored against a backdrop of community unrest and racial tension. An excellent read. Kept me guessing! * Zoe Sharp hooks you quick and keeps you! Charlie Fox is an amazing well-rounded character. She is relatable and breaks barriers women can appreciate. I can't get enough. * I love this series. Charlie is an exceptional protagonist. The taut writing style, solid plot and great humor makes for a wonderful read. * Best heroine since VI Warshawski! GREAT READ. * Her writing style is so spare and so visual, that you forget the words are there at all. * I NEVER guessed the bad guy in advance. I hate when that happens! * Charlie Fox is a female Reacher. The books are not as violent but they are just as good. She weaves an amazing story that is completely believable. Great books! * Every time I looked on Facebook I kept seeing people talk about Zoe Sharp and the character Charlie Fox. Not one to miss out I immediately read the first book in the series and LOVED it. * You won't be able to put this down until its explosive finale. Once again Zoe Sharp has a winner. * Character development, relationships between estranged daughter and father and between former lovers are explored against a backdrop of community unrest and racial tension. An excellent read. Kept me guessing!
