The Prize Prince (Detective Kate Bowen Crime Thriller Series, 2)
About
When justice cuts deep, the scars run personal
Detective Kate Bowen knows justice always comes with scars. Isolated on a UN mission, when the FBI requests her recall to Dublin to lead an operation tracking an ISIS suspect, she accepts, knowing her old squad is fractured and the real danger might lie elsewhere. Already, a covert intel swap in Cyprus has drawn her to Beirut and into the sights of something far deadlier than she imagined.
Fuelled with grief and fury by a colleague's needless death, Kate begins rebuilding her squad, trusting few, and watching Bailey, a Dublin enforcer tied to the Beirut suspects. Juggling FBI scrutiny, a slippery ISIS target, and Bailey’s brutal rise through a gangland double murder, Kate pushes forward, short on allies and haunted by a feeling that something worse is about to detonate.
When Bailey’s gang vanishes from Dublin streets and a visiting Saudi Royal is kidnapped, Kate is forced to gamble everything: her life, her squad, and the uneasy trust of a foreign power. Disguised as a medic in a high-stakes rescue, she enters the storm, knowing not everyone will walk out alive. Can she hold her squad together, survive the fallout, and stop a terror deal before she loses everything she’s fought to rebuild—her career, her conviction, and the fragile hope of something more?
