Pulled forward in time by the Guild of a distant future, Assassin 101 is tasked with tracking down a rogue agent before he can return to his time. What he finds is a web of espionage bent on destruction and domination, and a family secret makes the Assassin doubt his own future. Sebastian Caine, a top level Apprentice, has duped the Guild into complacency. Sentenced to death for his crimes, he escapes into the past. Plans for a new life hinge on drastically changing the timeline. Rick Brewer has been a guinea pig for Guild scientists since his capture. Along with Assassin 97, he is sent to retrieve Caine, but his growing affection towards her becomes more pronounced as they bounce through the Renaissance in search of Caine. When Assassin 97 is captured and tortured, Brewer must make the ultimate sacrifice. To rescue Assassin 97, Brewer and Assassin 101 must violate Guild law and, with it, accept possible execution. Can Assassin 101 save his wife and his future, or will the Guild leave her to history?
With a face for radio and a voice for silent movies, writing was his only recourse.

Riveting read! Again I am up reading into the wee hours unable to put the book down. This book is a really great extension to the first book. There's LOTS of action and there's history (for those that are into that) but it is definitely not as intricate and in depth as was the case in Time Assassins.
A worthy follow-up to Time Assassins. Time travels to the past and the future? What could go wrong? Well...lots...and R. Kyle Hannah does a great job of weaving together what appears to be two different story lines into a very satisfying conclusion that shows how intertwined both the past and the future really are.
Wheeee! Time travel is always fun and this doubled down on the adventure and alternate history of it's predecessor. The characters are more fully realized and the action scenes are just as fun. There are a few technical bobbles keeping it from being five stars, but still great! Highly recommended fun adventure story!
