Résumé

Book 5 in the Emily Kane Adventures. Emily Kane goes to the US Naval Academy, where she makes new friends... and new enemies. When China tries to extradite her on a murky charge, the Diplomatic Security Service and NCIS want to know why. Concentrating on her studies at the Naval Academy is harder than ever, and it doesn't get any easier when a mysterious stranger begins to follow her, or when she receives an invitation from the Crown Princess of Japan. And things turn downright nasty at a tournament at Quantico. Book 6 in the Emily Kane Adventures is available now:Girl Rides The Wind - Emily's Marine unit tracks terrorists in the Celebes Sea, and finds something profound in the windward islands. And look for Book 7 in November 2016 - Girl Goes To Wudang - Emily takes a post in the Defense Attaché office at the Embassy in Beijing, and when Li Li comes to see her uncle Jiang, danger follows. Excerpt from Girl Takes The Oath:"Sticky and beginning to congeal, she felt it on her hands and face too, her blood and his, and the sickening realization that she'd killed again, that another voice had been absorbed into the silence in her heart, along with all those men on the bridge, and the gangsters in that courtyard in Kathmandu, the North Koreans in Kamchatka, and in the deepest recess, her uncle David. They were wrong, unjust, cruel, bent on killing her and anyone she loved. No matter how many people told her she'd had no choice, that sentiment, couched in the terms of mere morality, did nothing to alleviate the crushing stillness of her thoughts, as if she'd become a living mausoleum for all those spirits."
