The Shadow Mission, (Paperback)

The gripping sequel to The Athena Protocol, a feminist Bourne Identity that New York Times bestselling author Patrick Ness called "a ferocious, take-no-prisoners thriller that actually thrills!"

Jessie Archer faced down death to prove her dedication to Athena, the elite organization of female spies she works for. Now she's back on the team, in time to head to Pakistan to take down the man whose actions spurred Athena's founders to create the secretive squad.

But his connections spread farther than anyone knew, and when a girls' school in Mumbai is bombed, a shadowy far-right organization reveals itself--and its evil plans to continue attacks.

When someone close to the investigation turns on Athena, Jessie knows that their time to save everyone is nearly up. Once again, she'll have to risk everything to protect the vulnerable and prove herself.

The lines between ally and enemy have blurred, and the next attack is only hours away.
