    Can Aisling Keane and her partner Shimmer survive her promotion to field agent? 
     
     
     
    It's what she's wanted since joining Dragonfly. The chance to show her skills in the field. She didn't realize it would involve leaping out of an airplane, masquerading as a model for a catering company, or taking part in an all-out assault on a defended position. 
     
     
     
    All those spy movies she watched as a kid did nothing to prepare her for reality. 
     
     
     
    A criminal organization has hit Dragonfly's radar, engaged in terrorism around the world. But how big can they be? The newest agent is on the team to take them down. But, like everything in the world of espionage, what lies just beneath the surface can get you killed. 
     
     
     
    Dragonfly has a new foe, and Aisling will earn a new enemy. 
     
     
     
    The turncoat agent, Jamison Hart is working behind the scenes. While Aisling hunts the traitor, unbeknownst to her, he's hunting her as well. Aisling will have to rely on her support team for support in order to succeed. Even then, success can come at a steep price. 
     
     
     
    She'll need to increase her power and her skills, and think fast in order to handle all the chaos that's coming at her. The investigator-turned-agent wouldn't have it any other way.
