Well frankly this book is good but I had this feeling of déjà vu because it makes me think of the immensely popular series ALIAS. All the ingredients are there, action, betrayal and passion. The woven tumultuous relationship of lily Mansfield SWAIN agent and lucas is a bit surreal. A mission and he falls madly her, the author does not have enough depth that attraction or languish ... The scenario is working: stop a formidable adversary who wants to get rich by implanting mutant viruses in the world: they quickly understand what happened to friends of lily and its sole purpose is to avenge! As an agent linda howard made an effort on the character of lily: cold-blooded killer but is still human (it's not wonderwoman). Lucas SWAIN me a little upset with his guts and then that he was too sure of himself to put her in her bed took away the taste to savor their romance but in the end he did something oddly j 'I was surprised and shocked! Finally good story for action fans but this is not the best howardien!
