Meet Holly Lin. Nanny by day. Assassin by night.
Holly Lin is living two lives. To her friends and family, she’s a pleasant, hardworking nanny. To her boss and colleagues, she’s one of the best non-sanctioned government assassins in the world.
But when a recent mission goes wrong causing one of her team members to die, she realizes she might no longer be cut out for the work — except the … out for the work — except the mission, as it turns out, is only half over, and to complete it will take her halfway across the world and bring her face to face with a ghost from her past.
Things are about to get personal. And as Holly Lin’s enemies are about to find out, she is not a nanny they want to piss off.

An Asian woman assassin and part-time nanny working for a three-star general. Two back to back great action scenes at the beginning. Then it settles down a little but it is all good, except an action scene on a truck. Confusing to me. But even with that, very entertaining and original. Strongly recommend.
enjoyed the book, good author
The ending was a surprise.
This is the first novel I have read from this author. I was hooked from the beginning. Holly Lin is a bad ass female working for the government as an assassin. Her cover is working as a nanny for her employer. There is a lot of action as Holly Lin tries to conquer the evil in the world. She can out fight and out gun the best. I read this novel in …
Decent read but i generally don’t like these books where the main character is like Superman overcoming all sorts of odds taking everyone out so easily. So unrealistic. No one is that good
I give this book five stars. The action was non-stop. Enjoyed Holly Lin’s feistiness and survival skills. All logical as a result of excellent training and innate abilities. Don’t we all wish sometimes we had the street smarts and skills to do something like that just once? It was fun to be along for the wild ride. Having lived in the D.C. area, …
This book had me on the edge of my seat. It was hard to put down for any reason. I was exausted by the end from building tension. I was also surprised by the ending. It’s a page turner that succked me in from beginning to end. I really enjoyed reading this book.
If you love a book with a kick-ass female protagonist, this is right up your alley. Holly Lin is believable, flawed, and, well, kicks ass. Literally and figuratively. The supporting characters are well-developed and lend substance to the storyline. I’m glad this is part of a series, as I can’t wait to get to know Holly more.
One of the best stories I’ve ever read. Holly Lin is a character to follow.
It was an interesting view. Some parts didn’t need to be as long, too dragged out
I really liked this book.
Very interesting and intriguing
I just go usher this book and I could hardly out it down. I have already put the other books on a list to get them.
Female assassin takes the world into her own hands in her own way. Good characters great scenes. Loved the action and how full of heart this assassin is.
Good fast paced read.
an excellent plot and a lot of action. The plot seem to be realistic in todays world
Read this one over a weekend, the story keeps you hooked.
Wow! Can’t get enough of Holly Lin!
Good fun story with a great female action star (something you don’t read a lot). The story fit together nicely with some unexpected twists and lots of action combined with good character development.
good action book ala Bourne
