Emma Sullivan was never a Romanoff - but she was raised like one. Plucked from the remnants of a broken family, trained in the shadows of the Red Room, and sculpted by secrets no child should ever carry. After the fall of the Avengers and the death of her sister, Natasha, Emma is left in a fractured world with too many ghosts and too few answers.
When Valentina Allegra de Fontaine offers Emma a position inside a new covert operation under government oversight, it seems like a chance to finally outrun her grief - or bury it under bureaucracy. But not all jobs are what they seem, and not all allies wear their masks on the outside. Haunted by the silence of her sister Yelena and the sudden reappearance of an old enemy turned uneasy ally, Bucky Barnes, Emma finds herself caught in a web of power, loyalty, and lies.
Now, with whispers of illegal testing, missing operatives, and hidden agendas buried beneath polite smiles and state dinners, Emma must decide where she stands - and how far she's willing to go to uncover the truth.
