Former CIA analyst Francine Mathews has created “one of the toughest female secret agents we’ve observed in a long time.”* Using her firsthand expertise of international espionage, Mathews offers another brilliantly realized suspense novel so intense, so authentic, it lethally blurs the line between fact and fiction. In Blown, Caroline Carmichael returns in a white-hot tale of terror on the streets of Washington, where one woman must gamble her life to save lots of her country.
As a large number of runners fall into line for the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, D.C., nobody suspects that in just a matter of hours the function can be a race between life and death. CIA analyst Caroline Carmichael is going to tender her resignation, when the first reports of any terrorist attack pour in–and she instantly recognizes the hand of the enemy she’s battled for a long time: the 30 April Organization. The neo-Nazi group is alive and well and operating in the United States, assassinating top officials and abducting a vulnerable child from leading ranks of a state funeral. When Caroline’s husband, Eric, is arrested in Germany as a 30 April operative, Caroline has no choice but to try the streets–and target the evil herself.
Eric spent some time working as a “legend” for years–a false identity so perfect, the CIA believes he’s dead–and gone deep undercover within the terrorist group Caroline is set to destroy. Now his cover’s been blown, and Eric’s intimate knowledge of 30 April’s plans makes him a target for both sides: the killers he’s betrayed, and the American government he’s sworn to protect.
Torn between a desire to save lots of her husband and her duty to save lots of her country, Caroline is drawn back into a treacherous labyrinth where trusting others is really as good as suicide. For the enemy this time around wears a familiar face: that of an American patriot, waving his flag alongside his gun. To stem disaster, Caroline has only 1 choice: to betray everyone where she believes–or everyone she loves.
For an agent without cover–an agent who’s blown–is worse than betrayed: she’s as good as dead.
