Whispered Identities - Book 2 of The Alina Marinescu Series - Monica Ramirez

      When you cross the line, there’s no turning back

      Alina Marinescu prefers her coffee with lots of milk, music and candlelight whenever home, and a 9mm Glock when she’s out in the field. Alex Therein loves to take long walks, misses his previous life bitterly, and is capable of killing a man with a simple flick of his wrist. Alex is Alina’s husband, although their marriage is nothing more than a convenient cover. He is her friend, her lover, her mentor, the foundation of her destruction. The person responsible for turning her into one of the most efficient assassins. Sometimes she can’t help wondering what it would be like to have a normal life. After all, normality is hard to find in a ghostly existence, while working for Elite Counter-terrorism Covert Ops, a secretive organization that doesn’t exist, run by people who don’t exist. An organisation without label or official title, not registered anywhere under secret codes, not affiliated to any intelligence or security services. Elite exists beyond existence itself, not constrained by law or scrutiny from the media. Although at first Alina is hesitant about her new life, she evolves into the warrior Alex trained her to be. She may not like what she does, but she does it efficiently. She has been trained to fight and kill, and although she may regret her position in life, this is what she does.

      "The interior drama of the characters and twisted plot continue to haunt you long after you finish reading this magnificent novel."
