Operation: Black Iris

To beat a syndicate, you have to play the game. To survive it, you can't fall for your partner. Taffy lives by three simple rules: keep your hair out of the line of fire, never burn the pastry glaze, and never trust a deadbolt that can't be picked with a hair clip. Operating under a legendary mentor, she takes on the dangerous missions no one else can touch-all to pay for her comatose mother's life support and hunt down the monster responsible. Enter Felix. He's an elite operative who is as lethal as he is infuriatingly composed. Forced into an uneasy alliance for Operation: Black Iris, the two must infiltrate opulent society galas in evening gowns and tuxedos, only to escape armed strike teams through wet city shadows. But as the danger ramps up, their forced partnership spirals into an undeniable, slow-burning fire. Secrets run deep in the agency. With a shadowy network closing in, Taffy and Felix must decide where their loyalties truly lie-before the enemies in plain sight pull the final trigger.
