Swallow

"A woman should be able to ask for what she wants." It's 1993, and Air Force Captain Claire Nolan hopes to be one of the first women to fly a combat fighter aircraft. She has no intention of letting Steve Donovan's captivating brown eyes derail her ambitions, but his team could wreck more than her career. Steve is a member of Charlemagne, the premier freelance specialist team used by Western governments for black operations conducted without fingerprints. Claire is appointed as support liaison when the team arrives on Okinawa to eliminate a threat to Steve's young son. She supplies dinner and winds up playing a part in a plan to elicit the information the team needs to save the child. During a frenetic and bewildering two-day period, while Charlemagne tries to identify an enemy asset, it becomes increasingly clear to Claire that she has become the bait on a deadly hook. Swallow is the seventh novel in K.A. Bachus's fast-paced Charlemagne Files series. Will Claire fly a fighter? Will she get her man? Will she live to do either?
