A jolt of lightning. A power no one was meant to have. And a government that wants to own it.
Sarah Luna walked into a strange little studio on her thirtieth birthday for nothing more than an oddity — a photograph of her own iris. She walked out able to see straight through walls, skin, and the steady, unguarded truth beneath every lie ever told to her.
The CIA finds her before she finds herself. What starts as an "evaluation" becomes a ballroom in Vienna, a hostage standoff at a U.S. embassy, and a station chief with fifteen years of trust and a second, secret phone. Somewhere behind all of it is a man with no real name and a drive worth killing for — and an agency mole who believes, with his whole ruined conscience, that he's doing the right thing.
Sarah can read anyone's pulse from across a room. She just can't read her own — not anymore, and maybe not ever again.
THE LUNA IDENTITY is a fast, tense thriller for readers who love a hero hiding in plain sight, a conspiracy with real teeth, and a gift that costs more than it gives.
