Will Robie is back - this book occurs immediately after The Innocent. The characters are all there - Julie Getty, Nicole Vance (FBI agent) and the Blue Man (Robie's connection inside the CIA).
And there has to be a bad guy - right. This time the bad guy is a collegue - the second best shooter at the CIA - Jessica Reel. Reel has decided that it is time for justice and begins killing off a secret group of collaborators. It just happens that the group includes her handler and the second in command at the CIA.
Robie is put on her trail. And because he has been slowly growing a brain again, he doesn't blindly follow his orders - he thinks a bit.
This was another great and fast read. It was more predictable and more far-fetched. But, that makes for an interesting story. Robie and Reel are frenemies. You see it coming and it doesn't disappoint. The government machine is the big, bad ogre that they are really both against. That also is not a surprise. But there is comfort in that formula.
I enjoyed this one as well!
