Series: Part 2 of Last Resort

Summary:

2271. Gabriel never intended to swap one set of secrets for another, but if there’s one thing he’s learned, it’s that life has a way of surprising you.

Una doesn’t want a partner - especially not on a mission that threatens to bring back bad memories. And yet, somehow, she’s ended up stuck with both.

But with Section 31 closing in and time running out, Gabriel, Una and the Network have to pin their hopes on a risky plan that could finally provide them with the breakthrough they need. Assuming, of course, that it doesn’t bring everything crashing down in the process.

Sequel to Lost Cause.
