Publisher's Synopsis
Carl Logan dedicated nearly 20 years of his life to the Joint Intelligence Agency. Now living in a secret location, under the new identify of James Ryker, he wants to be left alone, the chance to start a new life away from chaos, violence, destruction and deceit. It's not long, however, before Ryker's short-lived idyll is destroyed when he is tracked down by Peter Winter, his ex-boss at the JIA. Winter brings with him news of the murder of a woman in Spain, Kim Walker, whose fingerprints match those of one of Ryker's former adversaries who's been missing presumed dead for years - an infamous female assassin known as the Red Cobra. A cyberattack at the JIA led to the Red Cobra's profile being compromised, and Winter believes JIA agents may now be at risk too, Ryker included. But when Ryker sees the grisly pictures of Kim Walker's corpse, he has news for Winter - she isn't the assassin at all.
