Perfect for you if...

  • You love espionage thrillers with morally grey protagonists who operate in the shadows of government power.
  • You want fast-paced, tightly plotted stories with high stakes and genuine twists that reframe what you thought you knew.
  • You're already invested in Will Robie's world and want to see how his dynamic with Jessica Reel unfolds.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer character-driven literary fiction where internal conflict matters more than plot momentum.
  • You're looking for a standalone thriller. This is book two and assumes you know Robie's background.
  • You dislike detailed descriptions of violence or moral ambiguity around assassination as a profession.

About this book

Will Robie is a highly skilled assassin employed by the U.S. government to eliminate enemies of the state. His latest assignment involves tracking down Jessica Reel, a fellow assassin who has gone rogue and begun attacking members of their agency. Robie is ordered to bring her in, dead or alive. As Robie pursues Reel, he discovers that her betrayal conceals a larger conspiracy. Her attacks on the agency point to a threat with potential consequences for the U.S. government and the world at large. Only someone with Robie's lethal skills can match Reel's abilities as a killer.
