As she uncovers dangerous secrets, Emma realizes the killer might be closer than she thinks, and she won’t be safe until they’re caught.
Magda's Thoughts:
I’m really loving these female spy-focused books, and this one was such a fun read, packed with suspense that kept me on the edge of my seat. I’m fully invested in Emma now and can’t wait to dive into the third book. The only issue I have with this series is that the endings always feel rushed, with everything getting resolved in the last 5%, making it seem like the writer is sprinting to the finish line. Despite this, it was a very enjoyable read, and I’m definitely planning to continue with the series.
This is the second book in the series, start with:
