Synopsis

The fourth audiobook in the international espionage Stephanie Patrick Thriller series, soon to be a major motion picture from the producers of the James Bond film series, starring Blake Lively, Sterling K. Brown, and Jude Law.

Icily professional, Stephanie has been living life as her alias—the professional terrorist, Petra—to the full. Having completed an intelligence contract in St. Petersburg she returns home, but civilian life eludes her when she is lured to France by the call of a friend in need. In Paris, a bomb-blast triggers a chain of events which contaminates every aspect of Stephanie's life. It's clear that she's been betrayed. But by whom? She must identify the threat before she can run from it! Stephanie saves herself by taking a hostage, but soon the tension between captive and captor accelerates dangerously beyond her control.

As powers shift critically, Stephanie struggles to maintain Petra's professional cool, and to hold herself together. Ultimately, she's the only one who can save them—but will it be at the price of the hostage's life?

Goodreads review by Brooke on February 25, 2020

This book was by far the best one of the series. From the moment I picked it up it was so hard to put it down. Truly a great culmination of the series!......more

Goodreads review by Britton on May 25, 2012

This is the fourth and final book in the series. The best books I've read in a long time. Burnell outdid Steig Larsson before Larsson even started writing. I liked Larsson's books but I couldn't put Burnell's down until I'd finished all four!......more
