Espionage

A burned CIA case officer is hired to bodyguard a reclusive European arms dealer — but the contract's fine print lists the dealer's own assassination as the deliverable, and the clock on the contract starts the moment he signs.

Vesna Kolar has spent four years inside the Blackwake, an arms network trading through the port of Ostrenza, and believes collection day will end her cover. When her escape route is burned and her handler goes silent, she must keep her lineman alive and decide which of her own officers to trust.
