An elderly French couple is brutally murdered in Egypt, and soon after, MI6’s first female Chief, Amelia Levene, vanishes from the streets of Paris. With six weeks until Amelia’s appointment to the most powerful spy role in Europe, her disappearance is a national crisis. MI6 is desperate to find her—without tipping off the world.
Enter Thomas Kell, a disgraced former MI6 officer, given one last chance to redeem himself. Tasked with finding Amelia, Kell follows a trail that leads him to France and Tunisia, where he uncovers a shocking conspiracy that threatens Britain and its allies.
As the clock ticks down, Kell must stop a catastrophe from unfolding—but can he save Amelia and his career before it’s too late?
