This work of romantic suspense by New York Times bestseller Linda Howard concerns one woman's vendetta and the man sent to stop her from carrying it out. Lily Mansfield has spent almost half her life working as an assassin for the CIA. But when two of her friends and their daughter are murdered by Italian criminal Salvatore Nervi's organization, she goes rogue, vowing to bring down the organization herself, even if she dies in the process. Now Lily is on the run from both Nervi's people and the CIA, who have sent agent Lucas Swain to either capture or kill her. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
