Critical Praise
"An international assassin who's a master of disguise and escape."
Ron Berthel, Associated Press
"A cunning antagonist."
Richard Lipez, Washington Post Book World
"A formidable presence in Rankin's precision-tooled plot. . . . 'Witch' is the code name for the tall, wraithlike woman who has been working as a contract killer for almost twenty years, picking off prominent political, military, and industrial figures. Her devious methods and inventive disguises have allowed this lone-wolf predator to go undetected by international law enforcement, until her uncharacteristically violent Channel crossing from Calais to Folkestone alerts agents in the Special Branch and the Secret Service to a possible terrorist attack on the heads of state at a nine-nation summit in London."
Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review
"The beautiful assassin is back on the job."
Leslie McGill, Kansas City Star
