New York Times bestselling author Joseph Finder delivers an exhilarating thriller featuring fan favorite Nick Heller.
Nick Heller is a private spy—a private intelligence operative, based in Boston, hired by lawyers and politicians and even foreign governments. A veteran of the war in Iraq, he served in the Special Forces and later worked in covert ops for the Department of Defense.
In Guilty Minds he's called in to help out in a delicate, potentially explosive situation. The chief justice of the Supreme Court is about to be defamed by a powerful gossip website called SlanderSheet , which specializes in dirt on celebs. In mere days they will publish an exposé documenting that the chief justice had liaisons with an escort, paid for by a wealthy casino mogul — who recently had a case before the court. Nick has forty-eight hours to prove the story is baseless. But when the call girl is found murdered, the case takes an unexpected and dangerous turn. . . .

Review
Praise for Joseph Finder and The Fixer :
“A master of the modern thriller.”
— The Boston Globe
"There are many authors who take a reader 'slowly into that good night.' However, the real genius knows how to create the ultimate lead-in. They are the wordsmiths who can, in one page or one paragraph, grab the reader's attention and never let go...A true genius wordsmith, this is one author who has created solid suspense gold."
— Suspense Magazine
"Finder can make reading about someone walking across a room excruciatingly suspenseful…This is a thriller that is as much about redemption as it is about escape. A remarkable exciting read.”
— Booklist , starred review
