Learn moreDespite the angry scars she carries from her childhood training, Zoe Lorel has reached a good place in her life. She has her dream job as an elite operative in an international spy agency and found her true love. Her world is mostly perfect—until she is sent to abduct a nine-year-old girl. The girl is the only one who knows the riddle that holds the code to unleash the most lethal weapon on earth—the first ever "invisibility" nanoweapon, a cloaking spider bot.
Zoe's agency is not the only one after the child. China developed the cloaking bot and will stop at nothing to keep its code secret. While China rapidly hones in on Zoe, her threats grow. Enemies in Austria and Bulgaria reveal the invisibility weapon's existence to underground arms dealers—now every government and terrorist organization in the world want the nanobot.
From Malta to the Italian Alps to England, Zoe races to save not only the child she has grown to care about, but also herself. Her drug addiction is threatening her engagement to the one person who brings her happiness, yet she needs the agency prescribed pills. They transform her into the icy killer she must be to survive. Can she still be ruthless without the chemicals that suppress her emotions?
Growing up in Chicago, Angela Greenman was surrounded by diversity and culture. She enjoyed going to neighborhood ethnic festivals where her senses were immersed in savory flavors, colorful outfits, and vibrant music. Even more potent were the massive downtown blues and jazz fests and the Taste of Chicago. At these annual downtown events, hundreds of thousands of people of all races, religion, and cultures came together to dance, eat, and laugh. Her Chicago world with its powerful kaleidoscope of sights, sounds, and smells, shaped Angela into a passionate believer that it is in our differences that we find life's richness. Also a passionate women's advocate, she worked for the city's civil rights department, championing gender equity and a bias-free city. After traveling to twenty-one countries, Angela decided it was time to seriously pursue her love of writing. She wants to share the exciting places she has visited, and the richness of the cultures she has experienced. But mostly, she hopes her writing will bring to life the marvelous textures and vividness that makes us who we are.
