Book description from the publisher:
The Triple Threat Club has solved intense mysteries before… but this time it’s personal.
Cassidy, Allison, and Nicole fight for justice every day — Cassidy as a crime reporter, Nicole with the FBI, and Allison as a federal prosecutor. Together they’re a Triple Threat to be reckoned with.
But never have they faced a case so full of blind alleys — or so painfully close to home.
When a devastating turn of events upsets the balance of the Triple Threat team, they discover an ally in a quirky Private Investigator named Olivia. The women vow not to stop until the case is solved and justice is served.
Yet just when it appears the police have the killer in custody, he somehow strikes again. Not knowing who to trust, the Triple Threat women go undercover for an intricate and deadly cat-and-mouse game where nothing can be taken at face value… and nothing will ever be the same.
Success — or survival — isn’t assured in this riveting Triple Threat mystery that will leave readers both shocked and satisfied.

About the authors:

| LIS WIEHL |
Prior to joining Fox News Channel in New York City, Wiehl served as a legal analyst and reporter for NBC News and NPR’s "All Things Considered." Before that, she served as a federal prosecutor in the United States Attorney’s office.
Wiehl earned her juris doctor from Harvard Law School and her master of arts in Literature from the University of Queensland.
Wiehl is also the author of "The 51% Minority," which won the 2008 award for Books for a Better Life in the motivational category, and Winning Every Time.
She lives with her husband and two children in New York.
April Henry (in her own works, from her website): I grew up in a small Oregon town, and I still remember my mom teaching me with alphabet flash cards. White with a picture of an object on one side and a letter on the other, those cards glowed with magic.
When I was 12, I sent Roald Dahl, the author of "Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory," a short story about a frog named Herman who loved
peanut butter. The day he received it, Dahl had lunch with the editor of
an international children's magazine and read her the story. She
contacted me and asked to publish it. Click here to read more about it.
But as I got older, even though I read all the time, I didn't even dream
of being a writer. It would have been like thinking I could fly by
flapping my arms really, really hard. Then I got a hospital job with
lots of down time and started thinking maybe I could try to write a book
about the life and death that surrounded me every day.
That first book I wrote attracted no interest from agents. My second book got me an agent (and we're still together many years and many books later) and nice rejection letters from editors. My third book didn't even get nice rejection letters from editors. My fourth book sold in two days. It was a seven-year overnight success.
Since then, I've written more than a dozen mysteries and thrillers for teens and adults. The first in the Triple Threat Club series, co-written with Lis Wiehl, was on the New York Times bestseller list for four weeks. It was followed by "Hand of Fate" and "Heart of Ice.'
My first young adult novel, "Shock Point," was an ALA Quick Pick, a Top 10 Books for Teens nominee, a New York Library's Books for the Teen Age book, named to the Texas Tayshas list, and a finalist for Philadelphia's Young Readers Choice Award. It was followed by two more teen thrillers: "Torched" and "Girl, Stolen." "Girl, Stolen" was an ALA Quick Pick and an ALA Best Books for Young Adults and is a finalist for many state awards.
