Never Say Spy (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

"Fierce and fantastic - a totally different type of heroine who keeps you clinging to the edge of your seat!" ...If a kickass middle-aged bookkeeper got sucked into a spy's life... Despite her fondness for weapons and ripe language, middle-aged Aydan Kelly's résumé reads 'bookkeeper', not 'badass'. She's leaving the city to fulfill her dream of country living when she gets carjacked by a man who shouldn't exist. When RCMP officer John Kane kills her attacker, Aydan hopes her troubles are over. But Kane's investigation implicates her in a techno-espionage plot, and criminal charges become the least of her worries when she finds herself in the crosshairs of the same dangerous group Kane suspects her of aiding. Armed with only her analytical mind, a warped sense of humour, and a penchant for profanity, Aydan faces off against international spies and an RCMP officer who's not what he seems. Pity her enemies. Because nobody's tougher than a middle-aged woman who wants her dream back. * * * - A midlife thriller with humor and heart - Contains coarse language, consensual sex, and moderate violence including threat (but not completion) of sexual violence. The story can stand alone but will be more enjoyable if read in order. Themes: thriller, midlife, series, action-packed, humorous, strong tough female lead, racy & risque, espionage, amateur sleuth, secret agent, small town, technothriller, adventure, mystery, spy thriller series, women sleuths series, mystery series "If Janet Evanovich's quirky humour met Robert Ludlum's taut thrillers, the Never Say Spy series would be their love child: racy, fun, and action-packed."

Autor

Before I started writing fiction, I had a checkered career: technical writer, computer geek, and interior designer. I'm good at two out of three of those. Fortunately, I had the sense to quit the one I sucked at (interior design).

When my mid-life crisis hit, I took up muay thai and started writing thrillers featuring a middle-aged female protagonist. ('Walter Mitty', you say? Nope, never heard of him.)

Writing and kicking the hell out of stuff seemed more productive than more typical mid-life-crisis activities like getting a divorce, buying a Harley Crossbones, and cruising across the country picking up men in sleazy bars; especially since it's winter most months of the year here in Canada.

It's much more comfortable to sit at my computer. And Harleys are expensive. Come to think of it, so are beer and gasoline.

Oh, and I still love my husband. There's that. So I stuck with the writing.

(And, for the record, no, I'm not actually my protagonist, Aydan Kelly.)

Here's my "professional" bio, in case you need something more suitable for mixed company:

Diane Henders is the Kindle bestselling author of the NEVER SAY SPY series: Sexy techno-thrillers packed with tension, laughs, profanity, and sometimes warm fuzzies. The first book in the series, NEVER SAY SPY, has had over 450,000 downloads to date, and stayed on Kindle's 'Women Sleuths' Top 100 list for 60 consecutive months.

Diane enjoys target shooting, gardening, auto mechanics, painting (art, not walls), music, and martial arts; and loves food and drink almost as much as she loves her husband. They live in the wilds of British Columbia, Canada, where they get all the adrenaline rush they could ever want by growing fruit trees in bear country.
