This book takes the reader on a world tour of adventure, angst, and betrayal. Elaine is a brilliant, talented young woman who devotes her life to extracting revenge for her father, who sacrificed his life to give her a better one. Her plans lead her through the Secret Service training ground, where she makes a valuable contact in the Treasury Department. This contact may be her salvation when her new posting in Bulgaria brings her into contact with a treasonous agent who toys with her affections and draws her into his schemes. The story, part of a series, ends on a big cliffhanger.
I found myself drawn into the story quickly as this young woman, overcomes one obstacle after another in her quest for revenge, success, and love. I would recommend this book, and this series, to anyone who enjoys reading of strong heroines and intrigue.
