From internationally bestselling author Jamie Freveletti
comes a riveting new thriller featuring brilliant biochemist
Emma Caldridge, except this time there's nowhere to run. . .
. Emma Caldridge is on mile thirty-six of the
fifty-five-mile Comrades ultramarathon in South Africa when
a roadside car bomb explodes. Dazed and disoriented, she
regains consciousness after the blast to find a man standing
over her with a white plastic injector. She feels the prick
of a needle and the rush of medication under her skin, but
before she can make a sound, the man is gone. Shaken by the
event and unsure of what substance was pumped into her, Emma
calls the one person who can help her figure things out:
Edward Banner of the security company Darkview. But Banner
has his hands full with another emergency: Somali pirates in
the Gulf of Aden have attacked a cruise ship, and Darkview
has been hired to assist with the rescue. However, according
to intelligence sources, the ship is carrying cargo far more
valuable than wealthy passengers--something that could be a
new weapon of unknown origin. Suspecting the weapon may be
chemical in nature, Banner asks Emma to infiltrate the ship
and use her professional expertise to identify it. Emma
knows it's a risky job, one that she might not survive. But
when she learns that special agent Cameron Sumner--a man who
has saved her life in the past--is among the hostages,
nothing will stop her from getting onboard, no matter what
the cost.
