Dalla quarta di copertina:

"A FAST-PACED, THRILLINGLY PARANOID, PAGE-TURNING INTERNATIONAL ADVENTURE, AND INTRIGUE AT ITS BEST."
-Dean Koontz

YOU CAN'T RUN FROM THE PAST...
Professor Liz Sansborough, former CIA operative and daughter of notorious Cold War assassin, Carnivore, thinks her old life is dead and buried. But her father's legacy is impossible to escape. The kidnapping of her cousin Sarah sounds the warning. The ransom: Carnivore's legendary long-lost files.

YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM THE TRUTH...
They're said to hold the deadly secrets of his profession. Now they're being used to manipulate the world's most prominent leaders-a global plot that plunges Liz and undercover agent Simon Childs back into the kill-game, and trapped between a kidnapper's demands and a blackmailer's mysterious agenda...

WHEN REVENGE IS IN THE BLOOD.
Rescuing Sarah is only the beginning. Because the trail is leading Liz and Simon into the shadow of an impenetrable cabal known only as the Coil-and into the heart of an international conspiracy
that knows no mercy, and is leaving no survivors.

"Breakneck pacing, generous helpings of suspense and intrigue, and a plot with more twists than a bag of pretzels...will leave readers begging for more."
