When Lizzie Rush uncovers evidence that thrill-seeking
billionaire Norman Estabrook may be at the center of an
international criminal network, she finds herself playing a
dangerous game of cat and mouse. Raised in the elite world
of her hotelier family, educated in reality by her spy
father, Lizzie is the perfect choice to slowly amass
information that will take down Estabrook. But no good deed
goes unpunished.
Despite Norman’s arrest, Lizzie knows she’s not safe.
Estabrook will stop at nothing to exact revenge against the
people who took him down—unless she stops him first. While
in Ireland she learns of a bomb that’s about to go off in
Boston, but her warning to her friends back home doesn’t
come quickly enough. One detective is seriously injured in
the blast and another, the FBI director’s daughter,
disappears. Then intelligence officer Will Davenport
arrives with a single, simple message: Norman Estabrook is
gone.
Lizzie doesn’t know how Will found her or whose side he's
on, but she does know he can help her prevent the killers
from striking again. Now Lizzie—a woman who’s spent the
last year shrouded in a fog of deception—has no choice but
to trust Will, a man who lives by a code of personal honor
and answers to no one. At least until the mist clears and
the frightening truth is revealed.
