About the book
An instant New York Times bestseller!
Older women often feel like they are unnoticed, but sometimes that can work to their advantage.
They have spent their lives serving as the most skilled assassins within a secretive international group, but now in their sixties, four friends cannot simply retire. It’s a matter of kill or be killed in this thrilling novel by Deanna Raybourn, a New York Times bestselling author and Edgar Award nominee.
Billie, Mary Alice, Helen, and Natalie have dedicated four decades to working for the Museum, a prestigious organization of assassins. Yet, their expertise is now viewed as outdated in a world that values technology over traditional skills.
When the group is sent on a luxurious vacation to celebrate their retirement, they become targets of one of their own. Only the Board, the highest-ranking members of the Museum, can authorize the elimination of field agents, and the women realize that they are marked for death.
To survive, they must betray their own organization, relying on their knowledge and solidarity to accomplish their mission. They understand that unity is key to their survival. The women are about to show the Board what it truly means to be a woman— and a lethal one— at a certain stage in life.
