Chameleon

By Mark Burnell

Book Overview

They are chameleons. Beyond the law, beyond morality, they've survived by adapting, whatever the circumstances. And by trusting nobody but themselves. IT'S A QUESTION OF IDENTITY. Stephanie Patrick, a woman who was more comfortable under an alias than she was with hersef, she traversed the world and forgot who she was. Now, she wants to put all her pasts behind her. Konstantin Komarov. The FBI call him the Don from the Don. Today, at the heart of a financial empire created by the Russian crime pandemic, he's as comfortable in Manhattan as he is in Moscow or Magadan. Between them exists Koba, an old alias for a new threat. In a world where trust is weakness, honesty is naivety, brutality is routine, could falling in love be the greatest risk?

Gripping page turner

This is the first Mark Burnell book I had ever read and halfway through it now I am enthralled and intrigued by the Chameleons Petra and Komarov. Plus, he adds morsels of information here and there about very real things that go on in the world which are enlightening. Every page is, in itself, a delight. I look forward to his other 3 books with Stephanie as Petra Reuter.

Poignant violence

Marvelous read! A very fresh look at an international shadow world, told in a gripping fashion. What happens when a woman enters a profession seldom chosen by a female? All the vulnerabilities of femininity must face and adapt to this cruel activity. What happens when after all the pain, torture and violence she falls in love? An extremely well done "autobiography" of an international, extremely capable female assassin! A MUST READ of it's gendre!
