It's spring, 1987, late in the Cold War, and CIA clandestine operations agent Tracie Tanner is tasked with what should be a relatively simple mission: deliver a secret communique from Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev to U.S. President Ronald Reagan.

After smuggling the document out of East Germany, Tracie believes she is in the clear. She's wrong. A shadowy cabal is work, people who will stop at nothing to prevent the explosive information contained in the letter from reaching the White House.

Soon, Tanner is knee-deep in airplane crashes and murder, paired up with a young Maine air traffic controller and on the run for their lives, unsure who she can trust at CIA, but committed to completing her mission, no matter the cost...

In the dangerous shadows between nations, some secrets are worth killing for... London, 1995. The Cold War may be over, but its deadliest weapons are still in play. MI6 operative Elara "Phoenix" Mercer is used to dancing with death. When a series of precision assassinations targets former intelligence officers across Europe, she's tasked with tracking down the killer. What begins as a standard investigation quickly spirals into something far more sinister-a conspiracy reaching the highest levels of global intelligence. As bodies continue to drop, Elara forms an uneasy alliance with Marcus Reed, a CIA operative with his own agenda. Together, they follow a trail of breadcrumbs through the underbelly of post-Soviet Europe-Prague's hidden networks, Istanbul's shadowy markets, and Moscow's frozen secrets. But with each revelation comes a new question: Why do her recurring nightmares feel connected to this mission? What connects these victims beyond their intelligence backgrounds? And why does the trail of evidence keep circling back to a classified Soviet program called "Prometheus"? With enemies hidden in plain sight and a bioweapon capable of targeted genocide about to be unleashed, Elara must confront not only external threats but the darkness in her own past. In a world where loyalty is currency and betrayal is an occupational hazard, the most dangerous secret may be the one buried in her own mind. Some protocols are written in shadow. Some truths are coded in blood. A sophisticated spy thriller set in the volatile post-Cold War era, where yesterday's allies are today's enemies, and the most valuable weapon is knowing who to trust.

Katrina Burke is tired of being an intern for the Central Intelligence Agency. Life would be so much better if she could be a human intelligence operative instead of the coffee-runner, especially when London receives a bomb threat from a mysterious terrorist organization. Kat is determined, albeit reckless, and takes matters into her own hands. But doing so requires working with the ever-annoying British boy from her past. The only problem: he ruined her life once already, and this case could end their career for good. With every London citizen's life at stake, can the two of them pull their act together? Or will Kat lose everything she never thought she needed, especially her heart? - - - - - - - - - - - - Updates every Tuesday at 9pm EST.
