Conspiracy of Swords
R. S. Corliss
FBI Agent Alexia Reis is an out-lesbian determined to make it in the Bureau. As a junior agent she spent time in the research department, as well as the serial crimes unit where she and her partner, David Wu, were recognized for their work. After breaking several major cases, the two are moved to the hate crimes unit, which is Alex’s true area of expertise. Following the murders of several prominent activists and politicians, Alex and David become part of a task force charged with solving the killings. Together, they are sent to protect a newly declared candidate for the US Senate. For the first time in her career, Alex is named the agent-in-charge, and when the candidate is assassinated, she can’t help by take it personally. During the investigation the agents run into ex-CIA assassin Teren Mylos, who is convinced her partner’s death is somehow connected to the FBI case. While wary of each other, Alex and Teren agree to share information in an attempt to find answers to the deepening mystery. The case takes them to Europe and back, searching for pieces to the unfolding puzzle. As they dodge killers and turncoats, they come face to face with Nazis old and new, stumble upon a hoard of looted gold, and uncover a conspiracy that stretches over forty years and two continents. And, somewhere along the line, they discover each other as well.
