The Reykjavik Assignment
Beschreibung
Yael Azoulay, covert negotiator for the UN secretary-general, has made a powerful enemy in Clarence Clairborne. Head of the Prometheus Group, a Washington, D.C., lobbying and security firm, he’s as corrupt as they come, and fixated on revenge. Yael knows she’s being followed, but Clairborne’s operatives are not the only ones tracking her every move. Unexpected visitors from her past have arrived, and she won’t be able to evade them for long.
Driven by exceptional plotting and electrifying prose, The Reykjavik Assignment follows Yael as she fights the pull of her old life while brokering the triumph of her career: a summit in Reykjavik, Iceland, between the United States and Iran. But when events in Reykjavik take a terrifying turn, the only thing that Yael cares about is preventing a desperate man from taking desperate measures to avenge his own past.
