Missing people, murders, mad pursuits: all the ingredients necessary for a storm of epic proportions, a storm that will whirl its insanity across international borders and become one of the most complex - and dangerous - cases that the Secret Service has ever taken on. Talya and Samuel find themselves in the south of France, but if they thought they would find any answers there, they were dead wrong - there are only more questions, more complexities, and more mysteries. Now, to try to make sense of what is happening in the present, Talya must revisit things that she was involved in in the past. Talya recounts a job she had to take on, involving the disappearance of both Savoi and $500 000 of her employer"s money. She was sent to Mali to investigate, but every time she thought she could fit a piece of the puzzle into place, it turned out to reveal yet another mystery. And those events in the past now seem to be connected to events in the present, both of which take her deeper, ever deeper, into a dark mystery. And at the center of it all? The ruthless Puppeteer, of course. In The Beginning, the third volume of The Puppeteer of Washington series, Talya"s journey takes her to exotic and perilous locations, and has her meeting dangerous and mysterious characters, who may be allies - or who may be enemies who want her dead. As soon as you read the first few lines of The Beginning, you"ll know that this is a riveting adventure that you won"t be able to put down until the very last page has been turned.
