Description
A lone female agent finds herself abandoned in enemy territory in this riveting espionage thriller
Having completed her mission to silence an agency defector, CIA operative Cassie Bradbury finds herself cut adrift in Moscow with no documents, no tickets and no identification. Hot on her trail are the Kremlin, the Russian Mafia – and Sean Ravensdale, the disgraced ex-CIA agent who has been sent to track her down.
Realizing that she has been set up and is now expendable, Cassie will need all her courage and resourcefulness to outwit her pursuers – and stay alive long enough to exact revenge on the man who recruited her, who trained her – who betrayed her.

Featured Reviews
This is a good read. The plot is well defined and moves speedily. The reader will find it hard to put down mid-way. It is well written and the setting of the plot is entirely believable.
A wonderful trip/chase across Russia with excellent descriptions of places and smatterings of the language. Still not sure if there is an actual 'hero' in this book, but Cassie held my attention in the most part. Frustratingly, during several near capture of her, we were transported back to her youth or somewhere, rather than continue with the action.
As for the story.........well I think it is some sort of spy novel but don't expect Le Carre. I finished the book and cannot really get to the bottom of the plot. Maybe there wasn't one?
