by Parker Bilal

When it comes to family, loyalty is everything . . .

It’s not easy being the head of a feared crime dynasty. Donny Apostolis and his family are at war with the powerful Ziyades, determined to stop them muscling in on the Apostolis empire.

Fortunately, Donny has Brodie. Brodie is loyal. He’s also Donny’s hitman. He does what he’s told, which is why he’s agreed to take Donny’s young nephew with him on his next job. But when Brodie finds his target, he gets a call that changes everything – and his mission takes a startling turn.

Brodie is suddenly one half of an unlikely couple on the run, dragged into a brutal game of survival alongside Karima, the woman he was sent to kill. But can Karima trust him . . . and can Brodie trust her?
