Synopsis

A murder in a quiet English village, long-buried secrets and a man's search for answers about his traumatic past entangle FBI agents Emma Sharpe and Colin Donovan in the latest edge-of-your-seat Sharpe & Donovan novel 

As a young boy, Oliver York witnessed the murder of his wealthy parents in their London apartment. The killers kidnapped him and held him in an isolated Scottish ruin, but he escaped, thwarting their plans for ransom. Now, after thirty years on the run, one of the two men Oliver identified as his tormentors may have surfaced.  

Emma Sharpe and Colin Donovan are enjoying the final day of their Irish honeymoon when a break-in at the home of Emma's grandfather, private art detective Wendell Sharpe, points to Oliver. The Sharpes have a complicated relationship with the likable, reclusive Englishman, an expert in Celtic mythology and international art thief who taunted Wendell for years. Emma and Colin postpone meetings in London with their elite FBI team and head straight to Oliver. But when they arrive at York's country home, a man is dead and Oliver has vanished. 

As the danger mounts, new questions arise about Oliver's account of his boyhood trauma. Do Emma and Colin dare trust him? With the trail leading beyond Oliver's small village to Ireland, Scotland and their own turf in the US, the stakes are high, and Emma and Colin must unravel the decades-old tangle of secrets and lies before a killer strikes again.  

New York Times bestselling author Carla Neggers delivers the gripping, suspense-filled tale readers have been waiting for.

Thief’s Mark is the seventh book in a series featuring FBI agents Emma Sharpe and Colin Donovan but I haven’t read any of the previous books, I just decided to start here after hearing such good things about this series.

*makes a serious of noncommittal grunts in regards to this book* Ok, let's get started. I'm ready. Disclaimer: I received a copy of this book from NetGalley. To be quite frank, the writing in this book did absolutely nothing for me, start to finish. The random, unnecessary details, the things people s......more

Favorite Quotes: I never bought the absolute-secrecy thing as a kid. I always figured Father Callaghan would rat me out to my parents if I told him the good stuff. Did you tell your priest all your sins? He’s a great guy but he can be like an old housecoat. Comfy and no bother. His flush deepened until......more

Goodreads review by Lelia on December 21, 2017

My favorite mystery setting, an English village, and a pair of FBI agents who are definitely out of their geographic element...what more could I want? Throw in an art thief (which I've always found fun and exciting, probably because these art thieves are daring and, well, sort of James Bond-ish, eve......more

This was my first book by Carla Neggers and I think that to do this justice I need to go back and read the other books in this series.
