I received this book from the author for an honest review.A sad but fitting ending to a great series. It was my privilege to read all three books in this series, and what a wonderful and exciting read it was.Book 3 continued years later with Nine and Seventeen as the main characters. Isabella in her supporting role as wife, mother and sister-in-law brought the human aspect back in as their struggle continue to outrun and outwit the Omega Agency.This time the Agency's target was Nine's son, seven year old Francis. Abducted from his home, we once again traveled the world with Nine as he searched for his son. As always you are drawn into the plot as it unfolds with its many layers, that kept you guessing and hoping until the very end. Fast paced and well written the story meet up with the family, Isabella far advance in her second pregnancy, and Nine struggling with a heart condition when their son is abducted. It took all of Nine's skills to search and destroy the Agency that once trained him. Now he used everything he knew against them, running against time to get his son from this diabolic group.Led by Naylor, they did everything they could to prevent Nine, but at the end their plans folded or must I say flew out the plane, literary. (Buy the book and you will understand **smile**)This man was brutal, ruthless, and a heartless bastard with no emotions as he tried to catch Nine and Isabella, using people as he wished with no second thought. Their was no remorse as he hunts them down, his main objective to get them out of the way to go ahead with his cloning project, with Francis as his main focus.I loved the way the authors brought in each orphan as Nine and Seventeen met them, reminiscing about their youth before they did the ultimate. Killed. All for the survival of this young family and freedom.When we meet Seventeen she was in a terrible state, basically kicked out of the Agency due to a meltdown, caused by the MK Ultra mind control and Naylor's abuse. When brother and sister finally met up, both were in poor conditions, especially Seventeen. She was a far cry from the former operative, and Nine took a huge risk trusting her with his wife and unborn child. Her ability to overcome and conquered saved Isabella on numerous occasions as Nine search continued all around the globe.As always the book was filled with descriptive and in-depth scenes, interesting characters and great story line. From Tahiti, Greenland, America and to the heart of the DRC this was evident. Plotting and scheming with Drug Lords and Militia Captain's to get the job done.I really like the character Lusambo and his wife, at first he was not willing to risk his people to help Nine, but the moment it turns personal did all he could to assist. Changing the outcome for many orphaned children.Nine's determination, skills and cunningness put him ahead of the Agency, willing to risk all to save his son. His humanity more at the for front as he raced against his own heart problems, not willing to stop until his son was safe. At the end, he turned out to be a wonderful husband, father and brother who sacrificed everything for them.A great book and series I can recommend to all readers who loves a good spy thriller with all the elements of action, adventure and humanity inside to give you hours of enjoyable reads.Thanks for the opportunity. Loved it.
