About this eBook
A federal prosecutor’s disappearance launches a high-stakes case for FBI agents Emma Sharpe and Colin Donovan. From the bestselling author of Thief’s Mark.
When prosecutor Tamara McDermott is a no-show at a Boston dinner party, newlyweds Emma and Colin are suspicious. Matt Yankowski, head of HIT, Emma and Colin’s small, elite Boston-based team, is a friend of Tamara’s, and he needs them to find her.
In London, a woman who was supposed to meet Emma’s art-detective grandfather to talk about forgeries is discovered near death. Her husband has vanished. The couple’s connection to Tamara adds to the puzzle.
As the search intensifies, a seemingly unrelated murder leads Emma, Colin and HIT deep into a maze of misdirection created by a clever, lethal criminal. Emma must draw on her expertise in art crimes and Colin on his experience as a deep-cover agent as the investigation takes a devastating turn—one that tests the strengths of their families and friendships as well as their FBI colleagues like never before.
“Neggers fashions a colorful landscape shaded with just enough darkness to create the brooding atmosphere in which her heroes best thrive . . . Reels you straight in and doesn’t let go.” —The Providence Journal

I'll give this book a 3 star only because I normally enjoy Ms. Negger's books. This one, not so much. I've had this book since it was published. I tried to read it twice before and couldn't get past the 4th or 5th chapters. This time I made myself listen to the audio. There were sooo many points of view in this book, and so many scenes that seemed to be nothing but filler I kept asking myself why they were there. Not enough Sharpe and Donovan and too many others. Hope the next one is better.
