The Shadow Friends by Tess Gerritsen

Some books you read. Others you can’t quite put down until the very last page. The Shadow Friends is firmly in that second category.

Here’s the thing we love about Tess Gerritsen: she knows how to make your pulse quicken. As a fellow Mainer, she’s one of our own, and this suspenseful tale proves exactly why her thrillers have earned readers around the world.

This one pulls you into a world of secrets, hidden loyalties, and the kind of tension that builds slowly, then all at once. Expect twists you won’t see coming. Expect characters who feel real enough to worry about. And expect to lose track of an entire afternoon.

It’s the perfect companion for one of those grey, rainy Ogunquit days. You know the ones. When the fog rolls in off the water and the smartest place to be is curled up somewhere warm with a story that grips you tight.

What you’ll find inside:

• A gripping crime and suspense narrative from a master of the genre
• International intrigue, police procedural detail, and plenty of political shadows
• The kind of page-turning pace that makes “just one more chapter” a total lie
• A proud pick from a beloved Maine author
