I introduced the first book in this series, Killers of a Certain Age, by describing the operatives as similar to the character of Victoria, played by Helen Mirren in the movie "RED" (Retired, Extremely Dangerous). Readers are introduced to the women in that book as they survive an attempt to kill them off while they are on their retirement cruise. This time around they are called out of their well-earned leisure activities to help the Museum (the code name for their organization) discover who is leaking information about past missions and who is using that knowledge to kill off the operatives involved.
With each woman having her own special skills (demolition, breaking & entering, etc.) and the help of friends they have made along the way, they set off across the globe tracking down clues and suspects - and fending off assassination attempts. The main action takes place in our current timeline, so the earlier missions happened years before. There is intrigue, action, and ladies of a certain age demonstrating just why they were top operatives. Readers will be rooting for them to show they still have the skills to get the job done.
I received an advance copy from the publisher for review purposes through NetGalley.
