He's left the past where it belongs. But then it comes knocking at his door.

The silence following Tyler Reid's last mission has him eager for the next job. So when a woman from his past shows up on his doorstep with a new task-extracting a kidnapped Indian doctor from rival mercenaries-he's ready to move. It's dangerous. It's fast-moving. It's exactly what he wants. The only problem is Alexandra Romanova is going too-the one person who sees the cracks in his armor he's trying to hide.

Alexandra "Alex" Romanova has returned to Russia, but she's not ready to step into her father's legacy. So she seizes the chance to delay that future. Especially when she learns who's missing-and who's going after him. But working alongside Tyler again tests more than her training. He's different. More guarded. And something in him is unraveling.

From Libya to India to Morocco, the team races to find the missing doctor while avoiding the trap the enemy has set. But every step closer to the truth puts more pressure on the cracks already forming. And as the mission begins to spiral, Alex realizes the real danger may not be the enemies chasing them-but the severed ties Tyler leaves behind when he decides the mission is over.
