Book 3 in the License to Lie Thriller Series

Con artist Roxy Tanner has lived with guilt for 546 days. After the victim of her last con died, Roxy swore she’d ‘go straight.’ She’s fighting to change her life, but it’s a tough road. She’s been fired from several jobs in the past year. Has taken in a headstrong street kid named Lily Jamison. And refuses to touch the $3 million dollars from her last job—until someone kidnaps Lily.

Unable to go to the police because of her own past crimes, Roxy and her fiancé Skip Cosgrove see only one choice. They must find the kidnappers before it’s too late. They uncover a trail littered with lies, deceit, and a family vendetta. At the heart of it all is a painting known only as The Last Warhol. With time running out and her options disappearing, Roxy resorts to the only tool she has left, her past and the art of the con.

In Shadows from the Past, Terry Ambrose has created a fast-paced and propulsive thriller, fueled by deception and betrayal. He leaves nothing on the table as he maneuvers his protagonists  through a seedy underworld in a fight to save the life of a young girl. — Allen Eskens, Award Winning and Bestselling Author
