The Spy Coast , the first in a new series by Tess Gerritsen. This was a mystery novel about a former CIA operative named Maggie Bird, who has retired to a small town in Maine. She is enjoying retirement as chicken farmer and living a quiet life on the beaten pat.
When a young woman shows up at her door looking for another operative from the past, Maggie is not happy to have been found. This is the beginning of a run for her life. Now she has to figure out who is looking for her and why. She and a few other friends from the past gather for a book discussion group and call themselves the Martini Club. When things get really dangerous for Maggie, they gather together behind her to help save her life.
This seems like the beginning of a new series of cases the Martini Club will be able to start solving, keeping their hand in with the talents they used in their former lives. They are also getting to know the new police chief in town, Jo Thibodeau.
Maggie has to return to her past and confront her ghosts and some of the horrible things that happened to her as worked in the field for the US. It is a matter of who you can trust and who is out to get you, to save themselves.
