In the aftermath of Critical Space, Atticus Kodiak goes underground to protect the woman he loves and a country he may have to betray to defend. He's been falsely identified as one of "The Ten"—a short list of the world's most wanted assassins. In order to survive, he’ll have to become exactly what they're accusing him of being: a stone-cold killer.

Only one thing could coax Tara Chace back into the game: she needs to play hard. In Uzbekistan, a dynastic chess game devolves into a bloody, political nightmare which could well escalate beyond the country's borders. Tara goes in - not only undercover but under the British radar, too. Completely unsanctioned. No doubt about it, the cliff-hanger ending to A Gentleman's Game left everyone breathless. In Private Wars we learn just how far Tara will go... for herself and her country.
