More about the book

Tara Chace is a formidable force in the world of espionage, capable of seducing or eliminating her targets with chilling precision. As the new head of Special Operations for British Intelligence, she embraces danger rather than shying away from it. The landscape of international spying is shifting, and Tara is at the forefront of this evolution, challenging the old norms and the male-dominated hierarchy. When a devastating act of terror strikes London, Tara is relentless in her pursuit of those responsible. Her mission is to prevent further attacks, and she is prepared to kill again if necessary. However, the stakes have never been higher. In a risky counterstrike, she must become bait for the very government she serves, transforming her life into a one-time weapon. As she and her former mentor navigate a terrorist training camp in Saudi Arabia, Tara grapples with the complexities of loyalty and betrayal, questioning who the true enemy is. This gripping narrative, based on an Eisner Award-winning graphic novel series, delivers a thrilling and realistic portrayal of modern warfare, featuring a protagonist who defies conventions and reshapes the rules of engagement in her quest for justice.
