P a Duncan

And Justice For All P a Duncan

The game has rules?Mai Fisher doesn't like missions with no clear resolution. But this is the Balkans, and sometimes you have to accept small defeats among the overall victory. Despite Alexei Bukharin's insistence on this being their final mission, Mai won't let herself think about that. She's got an election to influence, assassinations to stop, justice to achieve, and errant relatives to save. But that all strains both her professional and personal relationship with Alexei. Nothing new there, but it's getting old. For both. After having to fight, unexpectedly and literally, for her life, her mission does conclude, though the loose ends flap about willy-nilly. That, Mai finds unacceptable, especially when the aftermath uncovers a betrayal that could have gotten her killed for the basest of reasons--jealousy. Being, as Alexei calls her, "the most stubborn woman on earth," she manages to find closure for this mission, though it takes time. Alexei has his closure as well, along with the acceptance he is who he is, occasionally ruthless and always unforgiving. Was this their final mission? Only time will tell.
