Description
The revolution has come and gone, with Amberlough City striving to rebuild itself from the ashes. The Ospies have been ousted and the very face of the nation has been changed in the process. Now, a rising politician is determined to bring Amberlough's traitors to justice, including double agent Cyril DePaul. Everyone believes Cyril deserves to suffer for his crimes--except an old lover and an estranged sister. Soon, they become entangled in a web of high-stakes politics, underground crime, show more and personal deceit. Only the most extreme actions can save them from the iron reach of the law. Amnesty is a smart, decadent, and heart-pounding conclusion to Lara Elena Donnelly's award-nominated glam spy trilogy that will have readers enthralled until the very end. show lessTags

What a wonderful conclusion to a great trilogy. Chickens coming home to roost, all of these amazing characters forced into compromise with themselves, hard choices and living with mistakes and such a satisfying ending for it all. I am so pleased with this blend of unflinching reality and happy endings that I honestly just sat here beaming at the book for ten minutes before I could start even trying to write some sort of coherent review, and then this is what I ended up with.

Third in a series (The Amberlough Dossier) of which I had not read the other two. I read the first hundred pages but couldn’t get into it on its own. Not anyone’s fault.
