Lily's Payback

"Lily's Payback" by Dr. Andy Rose

In “Lily’s Payback” (ISBN 1477597700), Dr. Andy Rose has crafted a unique romantic thriller. Lily, a middle school science teacher, launches a risky and deadly plot to avenge the murder of her twin brother. In her pursuit of justice, she will battle with the police, the FBI, the CIA, local mobsters and even the Russian Mafia.

The story begins at the funeral of Lily’s brother. Tenderly touching his casket, she whispers a Scottish blood oath to her departed kin, “If your killers were from the Diabhal, then they should know that I’ll be a Deamhan and will pursue them until your soul is avenged.” Lily enlists the help of three colleagues from the middle school at which she teaches. Though her classroom friends seem ill suited to the task, they are the only allies she has. These chalkboard jockeys will prove themselves unlikely street warriors in their quest to track down the killer of Lily’s brother. 

The man these four heroes seek is Zakov, a legendary assassin in the service of the fearsome Russian mafia. With more than 200 kills under his belt, Zakov is a murderer for hire not to be trifled with. The question remains: can the teachers write a lesson plan to overcome the ruthless killer?

Along the way, Lily unexpectedly finds romantic passion with a new love. However, she is not sure whether this man will help or hinder her quest. Her venture to find her brother’s killer draws her into the darker reaches of both federal law enforcement and organized crime alike. In her search for both redemption and intimacy, she will be challenged in all new ways.

Riveting, insightful and romantic, Rose’s “Lily’s Payback” is a crime thriller whose heroes come from the unlikeliest of places—the teacher’s lounge. 

“Lily’s Payback” is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels.
