Armi & bagagli (serie Armi & bagagli #1)
by Madeleine Urban Abigail Roux Cornelia GreySerie Armi & bagagli, Libro 1Una serie di omicidi affligge la città di New York. L'FBI e la polizia brancolano nel buio: si sospetta che il killer sia uno solo, ma gli indizi sono talmente scarsi e indecifrabili da non fornire alcuna pista. Quando a rimetterci le penne sono due agenti del Bureau, però, il caso diventa di importanza vitale per l'FBI. L'agente speciale Ty Grady è reduce da un incarico sotto copertura finito molto male. È arrogante e litigioso, ma è anche il migliore in quello che fa. Quando però lo mettono in coppia con l'agente speciale Zane Garrett, è odio a prima vista. Garrett è l'agente modello: serio, sobrio e devoto -- il che rende la loro collaborazione la classica accoppiata 'sbirro buono-sbirro cattivo', gli opposti complementari. Entrambi gli agenti capiscono, da subito, che la vera difficoltà del caso non sarà l'assenza di indizi, quanto il dover lavorare insieme. Appena arrivati sul posto, però, l'assassino colpisce ancora -- e questa volta il mirino è puntato su di loro. Costretti a fuggire e a nascondersi, e al tempo stesso decisi a scovare l'uomo che li ha presi di mira, Grady e Garrett devono trovare il modo di lavorare insieme -- e alla svelta, se non vogliono diventare altre due tacche sul coltello dell'assassino.
