Message from Absalom — Anne Armstrong Thompson

"Don't stay in this business too long, little one."

John Novak had warned her. Four years later, Susannah left her covert job with the CIA, still wondering where Novak had been sent. Then, on an innocent vacation in Bulgaria, she watches as Novak is shot down on a street in Sofia. But Susannah already has his message, an urgent message that she must deliver to the president of the United Stares.

And Susannah is back in the business again, with no one to trust, no one to help her, and one of the best agents in the Russian KGB pursuing her. As this shrewd, handsome, magnetic man comes closer to her secret, Susannah finds herself irresistibly attracted to her deadly adversary--an man who can be utterly ruthless, and can expose her!
