The President knows it's a perilous, high-risk assignment. If he gives the order, he has the opportunity to take down a global menace, once and for all. If the mission fails, he would face certain impeachment, and the threats against the nation would multiply. So the president turns to the one team that can pull off the impossible: Will Robie and his partner, Jessica Reel.
As they prepare for their mission, Reel faces a personal crisis that could well lead old enemies right to her doorstep, resurrecting the ghosts of her earlier life and bringing stark danger to all those close to her. And all the while, Robie and Reel are stalked by a new adversary: an unknown and unlikely assassin, a woman who has trained her entire life to kill, and who has her own list of targets--a list that includes Will Robie and Jessica Reel.

I found the book to be a fascinating story and similar to what could happen in the world news today. There are lots of interesting characters, some good and some not so good. I enjoyed the short chapters which moved the story quickly from one scene to the next. This book gave more information about Reel's life and past history which was insight into why she behaves the way she does. I look forward to the next book and I would highly recommend this series to those who love intriguing thrillers.
