The Strongbox Chronicles #3
The Phoenix Law: Author's Preferred Edition
All former spy Alisha MacAleer wanted was to lead a normal life, complete with settling down near her family. Then a hail of gunfire followed CIA agent Brandon Parker’s arrival on her doorstep.
He’d done the impossible: created an AI, a sentient being with artificial intelligence. The U.S. government and two powerful secret societies–hell, even Europe’s top underworld figure–all wanted it. And Brandon’s arrival made Alisha the last obstacle between them and the AI.
The one person who could help had betrayed her years ago. Yet with the exasperating and elusive Frank Reichart on her side, Alisha might have a chance. If Alisha could use him without giving him her trust, she might just make it through this final mission alive…

About the author
C.E. Murphy
97 books1,803 followersCE Murphy began writing around age six, when she submitted three poems to a school publication. The teacher producing the magazine selected (inevitably) the one she thought was by far the worst, but also told her–a six year old kid–to keep writing, which she has. She has also held the usual grab-bag of jobs usually seen in an authorial biography, including public library volunteer (at ages 9 and 10; it’s clear she was doomed to a career involving books), archival assistant, cannery worker, and web designer. Writing books is better.
She was born and raised in Alaska, and now lives with her family in her ancestral homeland of Ireland.
She also writes paranormal romance as Murphy Lawless and cozy mysteries as Catie Murphy.

Alisha figures out where she fits
After getting out of the business, Alisha gets pulled back in, and gets a chance to sort out the events (and people) of the previous books. Betrayals and unexpected help continue to surround her, and the resolution is very satisfying.

Great ending
I was very pleased with the ending of this series. Oh, there are a few things I may have liked to be different, all in all I am happy with how the ending went. Was a nice twist to the love story.
