An international spy thriller about a former CIA agent who moves with her family to Luxembourg where everything is suspicious and nothing is as it seems

A pulse-racing international thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of The Expats and The Accident It’s 3:00am. Do you know where your husband is? Meet Will Rhodes: travel writer, recently married, barely solvent, his idealism rapidly giving way to disillusionment and the worry that he’s living the wrong life. Then one night, on assignment for the award-winning Travelers magazine in the wine region of Argentina, a beautiful woman makes him an offer he can’t refuse. Soon Will’s bad choices—and dark secrets—take him across Europe, from a chateau in Bordeaux to a midnight raid on a Paris mansion, from a dive bar in Dublin to a mega-yacht in the Mediterranean and an isolated cabin perched on the rugged cliffs of Iceland. As he’s drawn further into a tangled web of international intrigue, it becomes clear that nothing about Will Rhodes was ever ordinary, that the network of deception ensnaring him is part of an immense and deadly conspiracy with terrifying global implications—and that the people closest to him may pose the greatest threat of all. It’s 3:00am. Your husband has just become a spy.

"Pavone's sturdy sequel to 2012's The Expats finds Kate and Dexter Moore living in Paris with their young sons. Dexter, a semi-reformed cybercriminal, now earns his money day trading, and Kate, a former CIA officer, works for an off-book intelligence outfit tasked with making the world "more hospitable" for the U.S. and its interests. Kate hasn't received a new assignment in some time, so when news breaks of bomb threats in multiple locations, and a man in an explosive vest entering the Louvre, she decides to prove her continued relevance by investigating. Meanwhile, Dexter makes a risky investment that hinges on an announcement from his former boss, Hunter Forsyth, regarding the acquisition of a European competitor. Then authorities sequester Hunter for security reasons, jeopardizing both men's plans for profit."--Provided by publisher.
