In the aftermath of a horrific terrorist attack in London, secret agent Maggie Black is sent to Paris to stop the culprits from striking again. Struggling with grief from a recent personal loss, Maggie's mission is about more than serving her country. She wants revenge against the home-grown terrorists who shook London to its core. With the help of a certain ex-agent turned rogue Scotsman, Maggie must race against time before Paris and its people meet the same fate. From the glitz and glam of the city’s elite social circles to the rough and ready streets of the outer ghettos, Maggie must track down the terrorists before they ring in the new year with a literal bang. But the clock is ticking, and Maggie must decide if she can trust someone from inside the enemy camp.

Maggie Black Case Files

The Defector

When a British covert intelligence agency learns of an impending drug deal between the Venetian mafia and one of the UK’s most notorious importers, agent Maggie Black is sent to stop it. Under the alias of an American drug lord, Maggie must infiltrate the crime family and stop their product from reaching British soil—a feat that gets more complicated when her colleague and old flame Leon is sent along with her. Maggie is soon thrust into the middle of a vicious war that spans generations. As blood is spilled and the scent of death lingers across the lagoons, a failed mission becomes the least of her worries—because someone has a score to settle and they won't let Maggie stand in their way.

Vendetta

When the sole witness to a foreign dignitary’s murder is kidnapped, secret agent Maggie Black is sent to the United States to save her. Already shaken by unexpected personal news, Maggie’s work gets even more complicated when she learns the witness is a twelve-year-old girl being held inside the Russian consulate. Using her specialized skill set, Maggie must find a way to return the girl into the safe hands of her British colleagues. From subway brawls to high-speed car chases, Maggie’s trip to the Big Apple is hardly a walk in Central Park—because things aren’t as they seem, and in the end, Maggie must decide if she can live with a deadly lie when the truth could mean war.

The Witness

Maggie Black is settling well into life after being a government assassin. Finally content and deeply in love with her partner, Leon, she is ready to open her own secret agency where she can put her unique skills to use and help those in need—on her own terms. Getting out isn’t as simple as Maggie had hoped, however, and her past comes back to haunt her, putting a stop to any plans for a fresh start. Nina, an old colleague-turned-enemy, is out for blood and returns from hiding in the most devastating way possible, shaking Maggie to the core and ruining any chance she had at happiness. Blinded by grief and overcome with rage, Maggie sets out to put an end to their rivalry one way or another. Tracking her enemy from the rural moors of Ireland to eerily familiar haunts in Russia, Maggie is on the warpath and hellbent on revenge. But she must be careful and not let her emotions overwhelm her—because Nina is back in full force and she hasn’t come alone...

Maggie Black

Payback

For Lenna Gallows, being the daughter of a mortician isn't as weird as people think—at least not until the day her ex-best friend Alicia is the one on her father's table…and her dead body wakes. When Alicia is found dead in the park from a suspected suicide, it shakes the town of Denwood to its core. But no one is as rattled as Lenna, who finds herself in the odd position of being able to hear what actually happened to Alicia from the corpse's mouth. Unfortunately, Alicia doesn't remember a thing from that fateful night but swears she didn't kill herself. Guilt-ridden over how their friendship ended, Lenna decides to investigate Alicia's death and vows to discover how she really died. As Lenna and Alicia struggle to resolve the issues that destroyed their friendship, Lenna digs to unearth the truth behind Alicia's death and her disturbing newfound ability to speak to the dead. As Lenna's list of suspects grows, one thing becomes clear: someone in Alicia's life murdered her, and they'll do anything to keep the truth buried—even if it means killing again.

Dead Awake

When secret agent Maggie Black agrees to protect the Mayor of London, she thinks she’s in for a boring night of babysitting.

With no one to turn to, Maggie relies on the one person who has always had her back—herself. From the hidden nightclubs of Madrid to the dark streets of Moscow, Maggie must delve into the depths of the criminal underworld to unearth the truth—and fast—because time is running out and the enemy is closer than she thinks.
