The Wrong Victim: A Novel (A Quinn & Costa Thriller, 3)
From New York Times bestsellingauthor Allison Brennan comes a gripping new thriller.
A lethal attack with no clear motive…and a killer dead-set on keeping the truth buried.
A bomb explodes on a sunset charter cruise out of Friday Harbor at the height of tourist season and kills everyone on board. Now this fishing and boating community is in shock and asking who would commit such a heinous crime-the largest act of mass murder in the history of the San Juan Islands.
Was the explosion an act of domestic terrorism, or was one of the dead the primary target? That is the first question Special Agent Matt Costa, Detective Kara Quinn and the rest of the FBI team need to answer, but they have few clues and no witnesses.
Accused of putting profits before people after leaking fuel endangered an environmentally sensitive preserve, the West End Charter company may itself have been the target. As Matt and his team get closer to answers, they find one of their own caught in the crosshairs of a determined killer.

Kara and Matt’s team are in San Juan islands off of Washington state. A cruise boat was bombed and 9 people died. Wa it the environmental protesters or the widow of the richest guy on the boat? The team goes into the small town to investigate. Looking forward to the next in the series.
Genre Minx Review
The Wrong Victim was a bit of a battle for me. Kara has never been the character I cheered for and she really had me wanting to walk away from this story and series at the start. Notice I said "at the start," she finally stopped complaining and lamenting about her previous life and career at some point and thank God for that. When she is doing her part in the investigation I really enjoy her, it is when she gets bitter and angry that she bugs me. Loved the mystery and the investigation in this story. Plenty of leads and possibilities to explore. The team is really starting to come together. I will be excited when they truly become a mobile response unit. I don't know how I feel about the drama surrounding Matt and Kara. It does add some excitement and spice but....it also brings a whole lot of tension and not the fun kind. Meh on that. Overall, I enjoyed reading The Wrong Victim and I hopefully will enjoy the next installment.

A bomb explodes aboard a charter cruise boat just as it leaves the harbor. FBI Special Agent Matt Costa and his team are called in. Nine people were killed, West End Charter had been targeted by an environmental group, were they responsible or was someone aboard the boat the target and everyone else collateral damage. If you enjoy a good mystery you will love The Wrong Victim , I couldn't but it down. Allison is one of my favorite authors, the characters and story make for a an easy read.
