Description
CUTOUT: A third person used to conceal the contact between two people. A pawn.They were partners — lovers in a business where betrayal is a heartbeat away. CIA analyst Caroline Carmichael lost her husband Eric when his plane was blown out of the sky by an elite group of terrorists known as 30 April.
Now her dead husband has surfaced among those responsible for an explosion that rocks Berlin — and the brutal kidnapping of the U.S. Vice President. Uncertain of Eric’s motives and show more loyalties, the Agency plays its last, best card: Eric’s wife — the Cutout.
Is Eric a rogue agent gone bad? Or has he thrown himself under deep cover to terminate a ruthless psychopath? Caroline is drawn into a dizzying maze where one wrong turn will mean certain death ... and in which the Cutout will be the first to fall. show less

My husband put it very well: "I like her writing, I just don't like the main character." I didn't have anything quite so good to say about it - but I barely put it down before finishing it.
I liked it in that I thought the story was told well. I disliked that the heroine is an analyst and has no business in the field. That she has a nickname that no one is allowed to use, yet everyone calls her that and the love interest was really really stupid. I'll try one more of hers.
