CIA operative Kate Devlin just broke a cardinal rule of espionage: Never create a terrorist.
These things happen in the world of intelligence, and it might not be so bad if her accidental terrorist, now a rising member of Yemen's most dangerous jihadi group, didn't have orders to kill American security consultant Nick Cavanaugh.
Nick could do without the CIA aiding and abetting his death. It isn't the first time terrorists have tried to kill him, but he's starting to worry it might be the last.
Thrown into an uneasy partnership, Kate and Nick clash over everything, especially the wisdom of creating terrorists. Kate's not too proud to admit he has a point, but tempting as it is to hand him over to the bad guys herself, she just might miss him if he were gone.
As the asset Kate once controlled edges closer to becoming what he was sent to destroy, Kate and Nick find themselves bound by the fate of one accidental terrorist. If they want to survive Yemen, they'll first need to survive each other.
The corollary to the cardinal rule of espionage: Don't fall for the man your accidental terrorist has orders to kill. Not unless you're willing to risk it all to save him.
The Stars Refuse to Shine, book one in The Sandstorm Series, is a character-driven espionage thriller about good intentions, deadly consequences, and the one man this spy can't bear to lose.
