Nemesis

The United States and Russia find each other at odds, which leads to the start of a Third World War, in which millions of lives are lost. On and off of the battlefield. The war goes on for up to eight years, with seemingly no end and the mountain of corpses beginning to pile up. That is when United States becomes a battlefield as well, for a mysterious assassin.

Following the death of Ashton Burke, Miranda Laurent is quite suspicious of the cause and begins an investigation to find and apprehend this mysterious assassin, all for herself and Ashton's daughter, Orla. This investigation reveals plenty of shocking secrets kept under wraps for years and throws her into the darkest crevices of her mind, where she is forced to come to terms with a tragedy that befell her family at the beginning of the war.

In a hunt with barely any leads, the assassin seems to be multiple steps ahead at all times, until he meets Miranda and he falls into her clutches, which makes things far more convoluted.
