Cold Countersign: A Cass Rennick Thriller
Someone wants him silent. She has nineteen days to keep him breathing.
Antwerp, late winter. Cass Rennick, a burned former CIA officer, guards clients for a small security firm on a conditional license, with a knee that has been rebuilt twice. One more incident and the license goes.
Then a suspended British colonel asks for her by name. Last November he spent a week hunting her as a leaker. Now someone has fired a shot at him in the diamond district, and he will not say what he was doing there.
In nineteen days, an original bank file arrives from Luxembourg for an investigating judge, at nine o'clock sharp. Someone needs the colonel silent before it lands. Every official channel that should protect him leaks. Every route Cass maps, someone has read first.
Then, one wet night, a wounded man in a long coat is waiting on her step. He would like to discuss an invoice.
Cold Countersign is a grounded espionage thriller of tradecraft, loyalty and borrowed time, set in the streets, courts and diamond district of Antwerp.
Book 2 of the Antwerp trilogy. The case is complete in this book. Cass's story begins in Cold Crossing.
