Summary

She didn’t live in a normal world. She was hunted. The code written in her genetics was worth an incalculable amount of money, and there were men and women who would do anything to lay their hands on her.

Living under new identities in rural France, trained killer Isabella Rose and her former handler Michael Pope are trying to lay low. Tired of hiding, all Isabella wants is the chance to live an ordinary life. But Isabella is an extraordinary young woman and the people pursuing her will never, ever, give up. Her unique abilities have attracted the attention of the Academy of Military Science in Beijing. And it’s not only Isabella who needs to stay in the shadows. Ex-head of top-secret Group Fifteen, Pope has his fair share of enemies and a family that he's desperate to protect. Isabella and Pope can’t stay off the grid forever. Someone isn't going to let them.

From the hills of Montpellier to the cliffs of Malta, they find themselves caught in a violent game of cat and mouse. Is there any way they could escape for good?

Exciting stuff!

Oh my goodness, this has to be one of the most exciting Mark Dawson book to date. Lots of agents, and anti agents to get your teeth into. I had to read this in one sitting. Brilliantly narrated by the wonderful David Thorpe.

Enjoyed all 5x Isabella Rose books

Preferred the narrator of book 5 than the previous narrator. Enjoyed listening to all, though sometimes the microscopic details had me zoning out. It’s made me want to listen to the authors other collections following Beatrix and John Milton.

Good story

Another great story in this series , however the change of narrator has ruined the overall experience, this narrator sounds like he is more suited to reading children’s books

A great return for Isabella, and Pope. Story is thrilling and full of twists and turns. David Thorpe reads it brilliantly. For any Mark Dawson fans this is a must-listen.

Both Credible & Incredible…

A believable, exceptional story. The most complex topics are explained and related so well. Mr Dawson’s books are a joy to listen to if only for to learn to an incredible detail about all things from the combat merits of a Beretta M9 to rNA and DNA as they relate to each of our chromosomes and the credible idea of gene therapy work being explored by countless countries or big pharma in a new arms race! Finally is it reasonable to ask ‘when does a cliff hanger as a writers aid to build tension and excitement become an actual in-story cliff hanger’ in the mind of master Mark, the master storyteller?!’ I think this book is the best yet of the series. Treat yourself sure, buy it now.
