In this brand-new digitally exclusive novella from Edgar Award finalist Mike Lawson, beloved Washington, DC troubleshooter Joe DeMarco finds himself face to face with Ella Fields, a cunning, ruthless woman he thought he’d locked up behind bars for good.

Ella Fields was supposed to serve fourteen long years, but thanks to a combination of good behavior on her part and prison overcrowding, she was now free after just five years. Well, not quite free, thanks to parole.

If she behaved herself—if she was a model citizen—she would go from being a supervised parolee to a mostly unsupervised one and might eventually be able to live a normal life. A life that might not even be worth living, because she was completely broke and the only skills she had were the ones that had landed her in prison.

So, her future looked grim, and she didn’t know what she’d do in the long term. But she did know what she was going to do next.

She was going to kill the scumbag responsible for ruining her life. She was going to kill Joe DeMarco.©2025 Mike Lawson (P)2025 Simon & Schuster Audio Crime Thrillers Suspense Thriller & Suspense

Great story with Avery anticlimactic 🪁ending, which detracted from the story. Joe Barrett, as always, had an excellent performance.

Lousy Ending

Lawson is my favorite author and the DeMarco series never disappoints. I anxiously await each new book and I especially liked the Rosario Beach series of novels also with the female protagonist Kay Hamilton, if I recall correctly. As I said I love his writing style and I have read all of his other books also. This was a novella so my only complaint was that it was too short. The always excellent reader, Joe Barrett, only amplifies the book. I have pre-ordered Untouchable and eagerly await its unveiling next month. I’m always trying to find writers with a similar style to Mike Lawson, but he’s top of my list.

Outstanding!

I didn’t realize how much I had missed hearing about Joe. This is a short fun story. I wish it was longer. I will take what I can so happy to hear about Joe. I highly recommend this book!

So happy to hear DeMarko
