Ever since she gave birth to her beloved son Dylan, Sasha "Nightshade:" Malone-Sterling has retired from field operative work. She raises her son in Leeds while estranged from her husband Kane. However, her time out of the cold apparently is over when her father visits her to inform her that her former boss at the American Renegade Company "ANO" needs to see her since her spouse has turned rogue. Apparently Kane has stolen information that if sold to the other side would lead to exposing secret agents around the globe. ANO believes that only Nightshade could bring in their best operative Kane. However, Sasha prefers to live the quiet life of a single mother raising her child, but reluctantly accepts the assignment to bring Kane home whether he is guilty or innocent. Katherine Garbera's espionage romance is a wild in the cold tale that hooks readers due to Sasha's duality that almost seems schizoid as she struggles between her desires to be a single mom vs. her skill as an operative. The story line is difficult to follow at times as the audience is never sure about whether Kane has gone bad or not or gone undercover to ferret out a family enemy; thus suspense rises awaiting the confrontation between the spouses as to whether this will prove to be the War of the Roses or Love is a Many Splendid Thing.
