— Amazon Customer Review
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, April 14, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — Retired CIA Lucy Kirk releases her suspense and a mystery-filled novel titled The Poison Factory that will keep readers on the edge of their seats deducing each of the character’s interactions in every scene. The book received numerous praises and positive reviews on Amazon and other online booksellers’ websites. The Poison Factory opens a world of international espionage and delivers a page-turning story of a capable and independent heroine involved in an unexpected mission.
The Poison Factory centers on the story of CIA officer Decktora Raines who is on leave from her job, trying to escape memories of the agent she lost and the disappearance of her life partner, Alex. But when a Russian defector reaches out of the blue, she finds herself in London and finds out that a Russian emigre has been murdered, and the only clues left by the killer are claw marks and an unidentified white powder. The bodies pile up, and the police and the general public fear that a serial killer is on the loose. But Decky and her defector are convinced that it is the work of the Russians. And as the claw murders increase, with some of Decky’s contacts falling victim, she must put the memories behind her and rely on finely-honed instincts to find the killers and figure out what they have to gain — and how to stop them from killing again.
