Book #3: A Good Thriller

Rage Against the Dying by Becky Masterman is an excellent first novel.  Brigid Quinn is a retired FBI agent haunted by the unsolved case of a serial killer whose last victim was a young agent trained by Quin  herself.  It's refreshing to have a heroine in her sixties, gray-haired and at times achey.  The pace is good, the cast (for it seems set up for a series) is composed of fairly complex characters who promise lots of room for development.  Three stars out of five.  Recommended.
