Their assignment goes according to plan until Agent Felicity Wilson is knocked unconscious after extracting the samples. With Felicity left empty-handed, and NBS agents believing The Syndicate is responsible for stealing the samples out from under them, the recruits return to their homes, unaware of the deception surrounding their bungled first assignment.  For each of the agents, life will never be the same as they learn of their proximity to The Syndicate. This is especially true for Agent Felicity Wilson, who will uncover a startling revelation about her past ...  -- ABOUT THE SERIES: NBS agents are trained for one purpose: bringing down The Syndicate, an international crime organization aimed at profiteering by keeping countries at war with one another. When an NBS agent is murdered shortly before her first assignment, five new recruits quickly realize the agency they're working for may not be as trustworthy as it seems, forcing them to make a pact in order to survive. Can the new agents stay alive long enough to uncover the truth behind their fellow recruit's death? Or is finding answers hidden deep within both organizations tempting enough to make one of them break the pact?  -- For fans of Robert Ludlum, THE BOURNE IDENTITY, John le Carré, THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD, Daniel Silva, THE UNLIKELY SPY and HOMELAND.  -- Christian Liberty Marshall is an Austrian-based writer, and musician with degrees from Vanderbilt University, and University of Music and Performing Arts Graz.
