Book Description
Our first excursion was to the Bronx Zoo. The Photographer wanted to shoot me holding a python. The snakemaster wrapped the thickest, blackest one around my shoulders. An employee of the zoo offered to take a picture of the python and me with the Photographer, referring to me as the Photographer's daughter. At that moment the snake picked up its head and began to slither towards my face. I did not scream. I pleaded with the snakemaster to take the python off me. After the snake was in its tank, I washed my hands with a special soap. One wash was not enough. He let me wash as many times as I wanted. . . . There is fear in my eyes. I see the fear clearly even in the blurred snapshot. The adults waiting in line with their children must have seen it too. Fear like I have seen in my sister's eyes. Quick Kills chronicles the desperate longing to belong as well as the effect of neglect, familial absence, and the nature of secrets. The young female narrator is seduced by an older man who convinces her that she is the perfect subject for his photographs. Meanwhile, the narrator's sister embarks on an equally precarious journey. Never clearly delineating the border between art and pornography, the narrator's escalating disquiet is evidence that lines have been crossed. Lynn Lurie is an attorney with an MA in International Affairs and a MFA in writing. Quick Kills is her second novel.

Book Description
Survivor of a brutal stabbing and sexual assault, Shailene Campbell has the ability to see homicidal sociopaths for what they are. This uniquely qualifies her to find and stop them, but shouldering this responsibility means breaking the promise to herself to stay safe. Now, just out of the Army, Shailene is trying to rebuild her life. She has a job as a computer geek, a small and secure apartment in a quiet neighborhood, and even a new friendship-possibly more-with a gentle architect named Mike. Things are going well, until the bodies of four young boys are discovered in New Jersey's Pine Barrens. Keeping her boss and Mike in the dark, Shailene takes emergency vacation and goes to Trenton, hoping she can find the killer before another boy ends up in a shallow grave. There is always risk when she goes out on a mission, but she cannot anticipate the personal toll this one will exact.
