Explosive Reprisals

In Explosive Reprisals, Kit Chase faces one of her most perilous investigations yet. Working as an international prosecutor in Pristina, she is drawn into a case that ignites after a Kosovo police officer is found murdered soon after escorting a well-known singer to a casino performance. The killing exposes a dangerous network of rivalries, corruption, and concealed loyalties-and Kit and the prosecution team are immediately pulled into its center.

Suspicion quickly falls on Mal Mala, a feared crime boss and the singer's former partner, whose thirst for revenge appears to have fueled the attack. But when a bomb destroys Mala's café only days later, it becomes clear that retaliation is coming from more than one direction. As the situation escalates, Kit finds herself navigating a landscape where alliances shift without warning, and the difference between justice and vigilantism grows dangerously thin.

Her professional challenges are mirrored by turmoil in her private life. Kit's current relationship is strained by her unresolved connection to a charismatic Russian intelligence officer, while the sudden reappearance of her long-absent father raises questions she is not sure she wants answered. With personal and professional loyalties colliding, Kit must decide how far she is willing to go-and whom she can truly trust-before the fallout becomes irreversible.
