Publisher Description

It's a new beginning for bodyguard Atticus Kodiak. Dead to the world, no longer hunted, he has lived with his common-law wife Alena for more than a year in a small town in the Republic of Georgia. But when their new neighbors are brutally murdered, leaving behind their son, it falls to Atticus to rescue him. To do so, he must enter a web that takes him from Russia to Istanbul and that stretches from Dubai to Las Vegas. But what troubles Atticus the most is that Alena—once one of the world's most dangerous assassins and a woman who fears nothing—is clearly terrified of what he's uncovered. And as Atticus gets closer to learning why, the closer he gets to destroying the life they have made, and each other.

"Rucka does his research, and that's one of the things that gives his Atticus Kodiak books such appeal for me. Whether he's explaining how ricochet trajectories work (bullets behave weirdly) or, as in this book, detailing the horrors of the current trade in human beings (often for sex, but other kinds of slavery as well), he delivers the data with a swift authority that never yitches up the telling of his story. Which is to say: He's good and underappreciated. Clearly not everyone's cup of tea, but if you like this sort of thing, Rucka is aces."

    " The (supposed) final book in the Kodiak series. I wont spoil anything, but suffice it to say the story itself is strong enough to overcome the fact that it doesn't bring much new to the series. "

    " So nice to catch up with Atticus and Alena again. Even if I do read Mr. Rucka's books too fast. I tried to slow this one down between quilting and knitting, but it was difficult! "

    " I have to say that this was a page turner -- a difficult subject, but Rucka kept compelling me to read 'just one more chapter.' "

    " As usual, I love Rucka's work. All of his characters are three-dimensional, his plots unwind like a watchspring, and the details are amazing. I love this guy's stuff. "

    " Probably the best of the "Post Bodyguard" era Atticus Kodiak, and unlike the last one, it actually has characters from the earlier portions of the series (y'know, those that are still alive). Lots of cool action, great writing and a subject matter that keeps things tense and horrifying. "

    " One of the better Atticus Kodiak novels. The pacing of this one seemed perfect and that action and setbacks worked well. Be warned though, the plot of the book, while well done, is a harsh subject. Still if you've liked any of Rucka's previous work, then this should be read. "
