Ellie Austen has spent her life living in a shadow. As the daughter of Jamie Austen—the most lethal female assassin the CIA has ever known—Ellie enters the Agency with expectations she never asked for and a legacy she can’t escape. Her first assignment is supposed to be simple. Quiet. Routine. Travel to the Cayman Islands. Identify a suspected CIA mole. Report back. But routine ends the moment Ellie realizes she’s being watched. Hunted by terrorists who know far too much, Ellie is forced to kill to survive—and with that single act, the mission shifts from investigation to all-out pursuit. Someone has compromised the operation from inside, and every move Ellie makes confirms the unthinkable: the mole is closer than anyone suspects. With the clock ticking and enemies closing in, Ellie must prove she’s more than her mother’s daughter. Because if she fails to uncover the traitor in time, the cost won’t just be her career—it will be her life. In the world of espionage, secrets are inherited, betrayal runs deep, and apples don’t fall far from the tree.

Will she have to sacrifice the life of a friend in order to save the lives of thousands of innocent Americans? Literary Titan says, “Though Shinberg’s book is by and large, a fiction work that falls under the spy heading, the author manages to include bits of history and culture along the way. In many ways, Shinberg has made his book all the more believable as readers find themselves hit periodically with references to historical events. I would recommend Fly by Night to anyone who enjoys the spy genre and is a fan of strong female characters. Michelle Reagan is a stand-out in this genre, and Fly by Night is a must-read.” EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a non-stop thrill ride with action galore, insights into covert action tradecraft, and descriptions of exotic locales around the globe so detailed you can smell them. Fly by Night is perfect for fans of Tom Clancy, Robert Ludlum, Dean Koontz, Brad Meltzer, and Len Deighton.
