This time she’s hot on the trail of a young woman no one else cares about—and a killer who’s bound to strike again.<br/><br/>Nadia Stafford isn’t your typical nature lodge owner. An ex-cop with a legal code all her own, she’s known only as “Dee” to her current employer: a New York crime family that pays her handsomely to bump off traitors. But when Nadia discovers that a troubled teenage employee and her baby have vanished in the Canadian woods, the memory of a past loss comes back with a vengeance and her old instincts go into overdrive.<br/><br/>With her enigmatic mentor, Jack, covering her back, Nadia unearths sinister clues that point to an increasingly darker and deadlier mystery. Now, with her obsession over the case deepening, the only way Nadia can right the wrongs of the present is to face her own painful ghosts—and either bury them for good, or die trying. Because in her book everyone deserves a chance. And everyone deserves justice.]]></description>

    <body><![CDATA[&quot;Made to Be Broken&quot; is a taut read by Kelley Armstrong.  It's book two in her series about a female contract killer and is a far cry from her 'Underworld' paranormal urban fantasy series.

This time she’s hot on the trail of a young woman no one else cares about—and a killer who’s bound to strike again.<br/><br/>Nadia Stafford isn’t your typical nature lodge owner. An ex-cop with a legal code all her own, she’s known only as “Dee” to her current employer: a New York crime family that pays her handsomely to bump off traitors. But when Nadia discovers that a troubled teenage employee and her baby have vanished in the Canadian woods, the memory of a past loss comes back with a vengeance and her old instincts go into overdrive.<br/><br/>With her enigmatic mentor, Jack, covering her back, Nadia unearths sinister clues that point to an increasingly darker and deadlier mystery. Now, with her obsession over the case deepening, the only way Nadia can right the wrongs of the present is to face her own painful ghosts—and either bury them for good, or die trying. Because in her book everyone deserves a chance. And everyone deserves justice.]]>

    <![CDATA[The author of the acclaimed Women of the Otherworld series returns with her latest novel featuring an exciting heroine with a lethal hidden talent. This time she’s hot on the trail of a young woman no one else cares about—and a killer who’s bound to strike again.<br/><br/>Nadia Stafford isn’t your typical nature lodge owner. An ex-cop with a legal code all her own, she’s known only as “Dee” to her current employer: a New York crime family that pays her handsomely to bump off traitors. But when Nadia discovers that a troubled teenage employee and her baby have vanished in the Canadian woods, the memory of a past loss comes back with a vengeance and her old instincts go into overdrive.<br/><br/>With her enigmatic mentor, Jack, covering her back, Nadia unearths sinister clues that point to an increasingly darker and deadlier mystery. Now, with her obsession over the case deepening, the only way Nadia can right the wrongs of the present is to face her own painful ghosts—and either bury them for good, or die trying. Because in her book everyone deserves a chance. And everyone deserves justice.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I can see the Nadia Stafford series as a tv show. It falls into the same category as a crime drama like CSI - shot mostly at night, but it also has the action of a spy thriller like Alias or La Femme Nikita. Despite this Armstrong series not being urban fantasy like her Otherworld books, I think it ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/47953045">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Oh Typical... I've started at book 2! I didn't realise until I came to add this that there's another book that preceded this. Then again that's good right? A book that doesn't require any previous knowledge? I love Armstrong's Paranormal stuff, specially the Wolves and I half expected this to take a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/57132107">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[The author of the acclaimed Women of the Otherworld series returns with her latest novel featuring an exciting heroine with a lethal hidden talent. This time she’s hot on the trail of a young woman no one else cares about—and a killer who’s bound to strike again.<br/><br/>Nadia Stafford isn’t your typical nature lodge owner. An ex-cop with a legal code all her own, she’s known only as “Dee” to her current employer: a New York crime family that pays her handsomely to bump off traitors. But when Nadia discovers that a troubled teenage employee and her baby have vanished in the Canadian woods, the memory of a past loss comes back with a vengeance and her old instincts go into overdrive.<br/><br/>With her enigmatic mentor, Jack, covering her back, Nadia unearths sinister clues that point to an increasingly darker and deadlier mystery. Now, with her obsession over the case deepening, the only way Nadia can right the wrongs of the present is to face her own painful ghosts—and either bury them for good, or die trying. Because in her book everyone deserves a chance. And everyone deserves justice.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[This is now my official Kelley Armstrong favorite.  Nadia Stafford is totally different from not only every other character Ms. Armstrong has written, she is unique from every other female lead I've read. What sets this book (and Exit Strategy) so very apart from everything else out there is that fa...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46933268">more...</a>]]></body>
