Stephenie Meyer
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.

"Just not into this. Had a hard time following it and didn’t interest me very much."

"This took me a while to finish, but it was worth it. It was completely different from anything Stephanie has written and I loved it! Although, since there was a lot of information shoved onto one page, I felt like I spent 3 minutes reading a 2 pages or something. So, it took me more time to sort things out than usual. The characters were great though, especially as the story went one, you could see the development of each one. Some funny parts also. Loved the detail of everything. Great read!"

"I really enjoyed this book! Great story, lots of action, but some romance too. It’s long, but didn’t seem drawn out at all. Great voice acting for the audiobook. "

"This was chock full of surprises, and although I was originally leaning towards 4 stars, it deserves the whole 5. It's a gem and worth the read."

"My favorite book to this day. I believe it was perfectly written and the story is so compelling. Sometimes the plot makes you do a double take and it is perfect for this book."
