The Widower’s Daughter

Their mother was never running from her father. She was sent.

Six months after pulling their father off a sinking oil rig, the six Hale kids learn the truth: the woman they called Mom is Ketevan Vey, daughter of Halcyon’s founder, a sleeper who spent twenty-four years as a double agent inside her own family. Now she has vanished, and Halcyon brokers are turning up dead with river stones in their mouths.

With a CIA kill order hanging over their mother, Nadia leads the hunt, from a prison convoy 876 feet above a West Virginia gorge to a burning stone tower in the mountains of Georgia, a flooding vault beneath Zurich and a masked gathering of spies in fog-bound Venice. Every step pulls her closer to a chair she never wanted: heir to the network her mother swore to destroy.

All six. Or nothing.
