PRAISE FOR KILLERS OF A CERTAIN AGE:

 

Mystery and Suspense Magazine raves about KILLERS OF A CERTAIN AGE: “Deanna Raybourn takes a leap into the present day with this intelligent and action-packed new book, and may I say, she hits it out of the park.”

 ************

ABOUT KILLERS OF A CERTAIN AGE:
 

KILLERS OF A CERTAIN AGE is a feminist tale brimming with acerbic wit, featuring modern heroines who prove that age can be an asset in a world that often values youth over wisdom. 


Raybourn, who is the author of the USA Today bestselling and Edgar Award-winning Veronica Speedwell historical mystery series, has a penchant for writing about strong heroines who have stepped out to embrace their own power in a society that tries to keep them down.  

 

While older women often feel invisible, sometimes that’s their secret weapon. 

 

Billie, Mary Alice, Helen, and Natalie have worked for an elite network of assassins for forty years and are now looking forward to enjoying their retirement. 

 

When the foursome is sent on an all-expenses paid cruise as a “thank you” for their years of service, they realize that this time, they are the targets. 

 

To get out alive, the women must turn against their employer, relying on their years of experience and their strong bonds with each other for survival. 

 

They’re about to show what it really means to be a woman—and a killer—of a certain age.
