Spies in Plain Sight

Lynn Hightower


A bold, international thriller about truth, power, and vengeance -- from bestselling author Lynn Hightower.


Junie Lagarde is a citizen journalist with nothing to lose. When most of her team is murdered in a newsroom attack, she and her hearing service dog Leo survive--and go after the billionaire who ordered it.


From a small town in the French Alps to the chaos of the Kentucky Derby, Junie plunges into a dangerous conspiracy involving a shadowy secret society called the Emerald Vipers.


It will take all June's strength to find the justice she burns for - make the truth loud enough to be heard.



Perfect for fans of fast-paced political thrillers, female-led investigations, and morally gray power plays. Spies in Plain Sight is a standalone novel featuring Junie Lagarde, following The Beautiful Risk.
