About the Book

From former NPR correspondent Mary Louise Kelly comes a heart-pounding story about fear, family secrets, and one woman's hunt for answers about the murder of her parents. Two words: the bullet. That's all it takes to shatter her life. Caroline Cashion is beautiful, intelligent, a professor of French literature. But in a split second, everything she's known is proved to be a lie. A single bullet, gracefully tapered at one end, is found lodged at the base of her skull. Caroline is stunned. It makes no sense: She has never been shot. She has no entry wound, no scar. Then, over the course of one awful evening, she learns the truth: she was adopted when she was three years old, after her real parents were murdered. Caroline was there the night they were attacked. She was wounded too, a gunshot to the neck. Surgeons had stitched up the traumatized little girl, with the bullet still there, nestled deep among vital nerves and blood vessels. That was thirty-four years ago. Now, Caroline has to find the truth of her past. Why were her parents killed? Why is she still alive? She returns to her hometown, where she meets a cop who lets slip that the bullet in her neck is the same bullet that killed her mother--full-metal jacket, .38 Special. It hit Caroline's mother and kept going, hurtling through the mother's chest and into the child hiding behind her. Caroline is horrified--and in danger. When a gun is fired it leaves markings on the bullet, tiny grooves almost as unique as a fingerprint. The bullet in her neck could finger a murderer. Can Caroline unravel the clues to her past before the killer tracks her down?

Review :
"The Bullet makes a direct hit. Written with style and intelligence, the clever plot gains velocity until the final page." -- "Valerie Plame, former CIA covert ops officer" "A fast-moving narrative...the plot is engaging and the characters interesting. Fans of the author, Pamela Thomas-Graham, and Tess Gerritsen will spend a couple of enjoyable hours reading this." -- "Library Journal" "An action-packed page-turner that remains within the bounds of believability." -- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)" "Kelly's newest novel grips readers from the first page and holds on through the last word...Fast-paced, intriguing and suspensful, The Bullet is a must-read." -- "RT Book Reviews (41/2 stars)" "Mary Louise Kelly's The Bullet is right on target with a riveting, twisty tale of a woman whose search for her own identity leads her to seek vengeance against the killer who stole it from her." -- "Hallie Ephron, author of Night Night, Sleep Tight" "Nonstop pacing, a touch of romance, and a heroine who's full of surprises combine to create great thriller escapism for the Harlan Coben set." -- "Booklist" "With an extremely likable narrator and twists and turns galore, The Bullet is at once a thriller, a medical mystery, and a study of how well we really know the people we love." -- "Alice LaPlante, author of Turn of Mind"
