The story begins with Cleopatra’s death but then jumps to present day. Special Ops leader Timothy Stryker and his wife, Angie are on holiday in Italy. They have been coming to terms with the death of their infant son. While Angie is out with her girlfriends, they are drugged and kidnapped. Stryker and his team must find the group holding the women and stop an assassination for happening.
The book is fast paced, the characters are developed, and it is written in the third person point of view. I like how Angie is written as a survivor. She did not realize how broken she was until she was held captive and made to face reality. If you like books about Special Ops, you will definitely enjoy the pace and story of this book.
