Publisher's Summary

The trap is set. Failure is not an option.

When government hit man Will Robie is given his next target he knows he’s about to embark on his toughest mission yet. He is tasked with killing one of their own, following evidence to suggest that fellow assassin Jessica Reel has been turned. She’s leaving a trail of death in her wake, including her handler.

The trap is set. To send a killer to catch a killer. But what happens when you can’t trust those who have access to the nation’s most secret intelligence?

Excellent book

Story keeps the listener spellbound till the end with many twists and turns. Somewhat bloody at times but all in accordance with the storyline. A good read

Another fantastic story from a Master. There is not one single moment that allows you time to pause, take a call, or scratch a bothersome itch, and it's so realistic for our current times.
I thoroughly recommend this book.

Seriously addictive

Since finding David Baldacci, I cannot wait for his next audio book. A brilliant author whose stories are enhanced by two excellent narrators, Orlagh Cassidy and Ron McLarty. These two could recite a telephone book and I would listen. Very grateful reader from Australia.
