In this gripping page-turner, an ex-agent on the run from her former employers must take one more case to clear her name and save her life.
She used to work for the U.S. government, but very few people ever knew that. An expert in her field, she was one of the darkest secrets of an agency so clandestine it doesn’t even have a name. And when they decided she was a liability, they came for her without warning.
Now she rarely stays in the same place or uses the same name for long. They’ve killed the only other person she trusted, but something she knows still poses a threat. They want her dead, and soon.
When her former handler offers her a way out, she realizes it’s her only chance to erase the giant target on her back. But it means taking one last job for her ex-employers. To her horror, the information she acquires only makes her situation more dangerous.
Resolving to meet the threat head-on, she prepares for the toughest fight of her life but finds herself falling for a man who can only complicate her likelihood of survival. As she sees her choices being rapidly whittled down, she must apply her unique talents in ways she never dreamed of.
In this tautly plotted novel, Meyer creates a fierce and fascinating new heroine with a very specialized skill set. And she shows once again why she’s one of the world’s bestselling authors.
I like a good story I’ll be the first to admit that spy thrillers aren’t a genre I’ve had a lot of experience with, so my opinion might not be overly valid for those with experience in this area. I’m sure those people will be able to pick at problems and plotholes, etc, etc, that were probably invisible to my eyes.Â
Okay I was really excited about this book because it’s something so different from what she usually writes. I started reading and was instantly intrigued. I liked the story line but it dragged and at times was really boring. I think I hyped it up to much? Maybe. If you like attention to every detail and descriptions that last for days then this book is for you! Great story it was just a little lacking.
Not what you expect, and YES! It’s GOOD!!! DON’T MISS IT! But personal level? Two nitpicks. I will openly admit I approached this book with a lot of scoffing and derision. The author of Twilight…writing a THRILLER? I mocked. A lot. So before I say anything else I can absolutely tell you the book changed my mind I expected to hate it. I have long been a critic of Meyer’s loose writing and weak heroines, so when the “tight thriller” statements started coming out I did laugh, but…that has turned out to be an accurate description of this book, and I absolutely would recommend…
