BOOK 2 of The Girl on the Boat Duology.
This book follows The Girl on the Boat, which should be read first.
Fledgling investigative journalist Sofie James wakes up drugged and confused in a farmhouse in Suffolk. The last thing she remembers is desperately trying to escape a hired assassin, sent by those intent on silencing her as a witness to murder.
Her saviour, ex-special forces operator Cal Harrison, has been tasked with bringing her in to be interviewed by MI6. A leading British politician is implicated in an illegal drug trial which killed her father, and she is a key witness. Uncertain of whom to trust, Cal and Sofie travel together to Paris, but before they can reach the safety of an MI6 handler in the British embassy, they narrowly escape a car bomb attack and arrest by the French police.
Fearing there is a leak, and framed for crimes he did not commit, Cal is forced to debrief Sofie on the run, forging new identities for them both in an effort to hide from authorities they can no longer trust. Their survival depends on Sofie gaining the confidence of a pharma company insider, and the ability of Cal to shake off their pursuers. When matters finally come to a terrifying climax in Gibraltar, there are just three words on a map that stand between them and their salvation…
