Publisher Description
Liz Carlyle, the quick, passionate intelligence officer of Britain's MI5, returns to defuse a terrorist plot in this high-stakes, high-tension tale of international espionage. When it appears a “secret asset”—a sleeper spy—has infiltrated British Intelligence, the Director of Counter-Terrorism assigns Liz Carlyle to dig up the mole. The spy, possibly a former IRA operative now working with British-born Al Qaeda sympathizers, has one thing on his (or her?) mind: total devastation. With a major attack looming, Liz must trust her instincts and move fast. But this assignment is deadly, and suddenly she feels like she has wandered into a wilderness of mirrors, where nothing is what is seems and no-one can be trusted.
Customer Reviews
Clues are not enough.
I like Liz and her intelligent insights which lead her, whatever and whoever she’s investigating. What I like about Liz, is the combination of smarts, and emotional intelligence she brings to the job at hand. In this case she must investigate her fellow colleagues and in at least one case a friend to find the traitor before it’s too late.
Riveting plot
A very intelligently told tale of betrayal keeps the reader totally engaged in a not farfetched terrorist plot. The author introduces and develops credible characters, some who we despise and others we identify with and admire. I enjoyed the journey.
