The audiobook is narrated in dual by Gregory Salinas and Allyson Voller.

I really like this one. The story is very different from the others in the series.
I liked that the story of Alessandro is connected to Sergei and Felix (book 3 - through the ZERO unit).

Alessandro, introduced in book #5, is haunted by grief and fueled by revenge. Eight years after losing his wife Nathalie in a hit-and-run, his obsessive search for answers leads him to the devastating truth—and closer to the woman he should never want. Ravenna is a young woman trapped in a golden prison as the “wife” of a possessive mafia capo, she becomes both his target and his undoing.
This slow burn unravels well.

The epilogue is very appealing… not a cliffhanger per se, but close enough to make me want more.
