Brought to you by Penguin.

When an MI6 operative is murdered in his London apartment, fellow spy Emma Makepeace knows the killer was professional.

As the danger ratchets up and the chase intensifies, Emma knows that no one is safe until the third man is caught - and that she is in terrifying danger ...
