Book 4 of 5 in the James Thomas series.
"Sarquis’ portraits changed everything. James Thomas has the identity of the man hunting him, but there’s one problem…James can’t kill him until he has the code that will save Mak Ashwood’s life. And the man hunting him is the only one with the code. James must take him alive, but he can’t do that without resources. Resources he doesn’t currently have.
James will do anything to protect those he loves, and that includes making a deal with Europe’s most feared and violent man. The same man that wants to kidnap and torture James’ girlfriend. A man known as Alexandr Biskup. The risks are grave. The deal will create a powerful alliance, but the clock is ticking: if James fails, he and everyone he loves will die."
