Moving Target (An Ali Reynolds Mystery)

“Humming with suspense and never-ending action” (RT Book Reviews), this unputdownable thriller follows Ali Reynolds as she unearths a cold case that puts her in the crosshairs of a deadly arsonist—from New York Times bestselling author J.A. Jance.

Lance Tucker, an incarcerated juvenile offender and talented hacker in his own right, is set on fire while hanging Christmas decorations in a lockup rec room. B. Simpson, Ali Reynolds’s fiancé and the man who helped put Lance in jail, feels obliged to get to the bottom of what happened. With Ali off in England to help Leland Brooks at a reunion with his long-estranged family, B. turns to someone else to help out—Ali’s good friend and Taser-carrying nun, Sister Anselm.

Meanwhile, in Bournemouth—Leland’s hometown—Ali begins to investigate the decades-old murder of his father, which Leland himself was once suspected of committing. With unsolved murders on both sides of the Atlantic, Ali, B., and Sister Anselm are united by their search for answers—and the danger they get into as a result in this high-flying thriller that “hits the bull’s eye” (South Florida Sun-Sentinel).
