Scapegoat — Amy Dawson Robertson

Accountability. Responsibility. When things go wrong, someone has to pay. In this case, that someone is Rennie Vogel.

Hung out to dry for the debacle of the Tajikistan mission, Rennie finds herself on the outside of the system with no hope of return. To make things worse, Hannah Marcus has moved on, seemingly willing to consign their interrupted relationship to the past.

Rennie has never heard of The Foundation, but they have heard of her. A former adversary unexpectedly offers her an opportunity to serve her country in a less-than-legal but honorable undertaking. With rare hope, Rennie tries to make contact with Hannah only to find her new mission is setting them on a collision course--and if they don't find an elusive homegrown terrorist in time Rennie knows who'll take the blame. If she lives that long.

In a powerhouse follow-up to her lauded debut Miles to Go, Amy Dawson Robertson delves deeper into the trials of a hero coping with the complicated landscape of guilt, responsibility and honor.
