Inhaltsangabe
In this gripping thriller, an ex-agent on the run from her former employers must take one more case to clear her name and save her life.
She used to work for the US government, but very few people ever knew that. An expert in her field, she was one of the darkest secrets of an agency so clandestine it doesn't even have a name. And when they decided she was a liability, they came for her without warning.
Now she rarely stays in the same place or uses the same name for long. They've killed the only other person she trusted, but something she knows still poses a threat. They want her dead, and soon.
When her former handler offers her a way out, she realises it's her only chance to erase the giant target on her back. But it means taking one last job for her ex-employers. To her horror, the information she acquires only makes her situation more dangerous.
Resolving to meet the threat head-on, she prepares for the toughest fight of her life but finds herself falling for a man who can only complicate her likelihood of survival. As she sees her choices being rapidly whittled down, she must apply her unique talents in ways she never dreamed of.
In this tautly plotted novel, Meyer creates a fierce and fascinating new heroine with a very specialised skill set. And she shows once again why she's one of the world's best-selling authors.

This book is NOT a Thriller!
This book is definitely not a Thriller! It should be listed under ROMANCE! I actually expected a lot more. I loved the Twilight books but was quite disappointed from this one. First because I expected a Thriller and it wasn't one and second because the story was very flat and sometimes even disturbing. Not very imaginative nor very gripping but very wordily....

A definitively fast paced spy novel, very different Meyer book...
This was a Clancy type spy book , viewed the female perspective.
Am ready for the sequel already...All the characters seem very real/have good depth. Adding the interesting interaction with the dogs made you feel as if not just 2 bit 3 different storylines were running parallel to each other. Can reccomend for both fe/male readers. Make sure you have time to finish reading once you begin...

Folter = legitimes Mittel zum Zweck
Hätte ich mal auf Eva hier gehört! Ich konnte es mir ja nicht vorstellen und hoffte bis zum Ende auf eine Wendung diesbezüglich aber nein, Folter wird hier tatsächlich als zwar grausames aber völlig legitimes Mittel zum Zweck (viele Menschen retten) verkauft. Wer das nicht ganz so sieht wird keine rechte Freude am Hörbuch haben.

ging so...
Ich fand die Geschichte nicht gerade fesselnd, die Handlung war z.T. vorhersehbar und der Anfang war spannend. Dann entwickelte es sich zu einer unnötigen Liebesgeschichte, als müsse man entweder der Hauptfigur weibliche charakterliche Züge verleihen.

Gutes Handwerk, schlechte Geschichte
Das Buch ist spannend, keine Frage. Frau Meyer versteht ihr Handwerk. Aber mal ehrlich, die Geschichte ist in weiten Teilen unglaubwürdig und gespickt mit unrealistischen Dialogen und Widersprüchen. Dabei fängt das Buch vielversprechend an, man weiß nicht, in welche Richtung sich die Geschichte entwickeln wird. Doch dann trifft die Protagonistin Daniel und ab da handelt sie eigentlich nur noch unlogisch, die Dialoge sind nach meinem Empfinden absurd gemessen an den Situationen, in denen sie spielen. Das Buch hat mich schon gefesselt und ich wollte auch wissen wie es ausgeht, aber zwischendurch dachte ich immer wieder, wie unrealistisch die Geschichte ist. Schade eigentlich, denn Talent zum Schreiben hat Frau Meyer sicherlich... Insgesamt hat mich das Buch leider nicht überzeugt und ich würde es nicht weiter empfehlen. Wer es nicht ließt verpasst wirklich gar nichts...
