Spoiler Info
(view spoiler)[
Sebastian killed Daniel. He disappears after having gotten wounded while trying to kill Marcus. Mercedes turns herself into HORNET after having misgivings about Ostermann. They hold her captive and take her back to Wyoming.
Jean-Luc contracted the virus and was dying. Marcus had his health proxy and approved Claire dosing him with Akeso. He recovered and did so rapidly.
Sunday was murdered when the Egbesu Fighters raided the camp, brought there by Mercedes and Sebastian.
Dayo was tricked by the Bioteric people and led them to Claire and Jean-Luc. They shot him as he was infected with the virus as was his family. They had promised him that Claire could help save his family.
Ostermann abducted 20 people who he wanted to be in his new world. He developed the deadly virus and tested it in Nigeria, the home of his childhood nanny who’d given him smallpox and disfigured him. His plan was to wipe out the world population and start all over again. When Claire destroyed the castle in Austria, he escaped and took the last vial of Akeso with him. Claire figured out he was going to the same conference like the one in Martinique and HORNET thwarted his plans. Ra’id killed him (he was infected with jaundice at the castle). FYI, Ra’id was from an Arabic crime mob family.
Seth and Phoebe married.
Audrey is pregnant. So is Libby Wilde.
Claire agrees to move into Jean-Luc’s cabin in New Orleans.
The story ends with Marcus having drugged Mercedes’ guard (Sean) and he threatens her with a gun, demanding that she tell him who shot Danny. (hide spoiler)]

Here’s a tip...I wouldn’t add the whole series at one time. I like to manipulate keeping the new books I’m currently reading and creating character lists for at the top (most recent activity). If you add all of the books at one time and later create the character lists, they won’t show up as recent activity because you’re editing an existing message.
Make sense?
1). No index but if you go to the Character List folder and click on “topic” the list will display in alpha order. Or, you can search the discussions using the GR series name. 2) PLEASE feel free to add new series using the format established here. If it’s a standalone book (sometimes authors have a habit of turning it into a series), just set it up by the book name. If it turns into a series, we can always fix that.
Glad you’re here!

Spoiler Info
(view spoiler)[
Angie is demoted for a year to a social media coordinator, losing her detective shield and gun. However, no criminal charges are filed. She’s later fired for visiting Milo.
Angie’s biological mother was Anastazja. She also had a twin sister, Mila. Angie’s name was Roksana. Her biological father is Oly. Ana was taken from Poland and became impregnated by Oly when she was 16-years old.
Milo and Semyon were murdered following Angie’s visits, hit ordered by Oly. Semyon was Anastazja and the twins’ protector. Anastazja was trying to save the twins from a life in the sex trade.
Ana seduced Milo and a man named Ivanski Polzam to get her daughters away while they were waiting in a hotel room to be shipped off to Saudi Arabia. The twins would be groomed to be sex slaves. Ana ran off with the twins with the idea of putting both of them in the cradle. Milo accidentally slashed Angie/Roksana with the knife (he was aiming for Ana) but he and Ivanski were able to pull Ana and Mila away before the church bells began ringing. Angie was saved. There was also another conspirator, Sasha Makeev.
Oly was upset with Milo and Semyon (his cousin) for botching Ana’s protection. He also knew Semyon was in love with Ana. He orchestrated their being busted in 1993 and had Stirling and Elaine Harrison killed to extend Semyon’s imprisonment.
Oly punished Ana by caging her and Mila in a crab pot at Semko Island and submerged them in the fish pens, drowning them. Mila’s foot in the purple sneaker eventually rose from the silt and traveled in the ocean before being found.
Angie showed up at the club Maddocks and the task force were monitoring and he watched her be abducted by the hit man. He traced her to Oly’s lodge on Semko Island and helped rescue her as she saved herself from Oly.
Maddocks asked Angie to marry him but doesn’t yet want an answer. (hide spoiler)]
