Happening upon a dead body wasn't listed on Olive Sterling's job description. Her undercover assignment posing as an External Information Security Analyst inside Conglomerate's headquarters had just gotten dicier. Someone inside the company was allegedly trying to sell off cutting edge technology to a foreign entity. But wait! . . . there's more.
Seeing Jason Stewart again threw the cool and collected Olive off her game . . . for a split second. . . maybe he wouldn't recognize her after nine years? . . . oh, yes he did. How did Jason just happen to be the head of security for Conglomerate. . . would her one and only love become a suspect?
Splicing parts of Olive's past life experiences into her present dilemma moves the story along at an interesting pace. Keeping that connection steady but vague brings short respites to the high stakes game that someone is playing with a extremely dangerous asset; smart dust. There are pros and cons to trusting Jason as an ally, which will it be?
I've just been drawn in to another intriguing series by this author!
