This compilation novel is comprised of three novellas: Assignment Zero, Agent Prerogative, and The Final Chapter, making this the complete Alexis Parker prequel series. Assignment Zero chronicles Agent Parker's beginning from her last days at Quantico through her very first mission as an underling to S.S.A. Mark Jablonsky. All bets are off as Alex ends up undercover with her academy rival, Michael Carver. A restaurant employee, a wine collector, and the Russian mafia are all pieces of this daunting puzzle. Weapons are being smuggled into the country, and it's up to the Office of International Operations to determine the source. Things continue to become more complicated until they reach an unsettling end. Next, Alex Parker's story continues with Agent Prerogative. She returns from an extended overseas mission to discover her rival, Michael Carver, has permanently transferred to the OIO. Her unsteady partnership with her Quantico competitor must fall to the wayside as Alex and Michael are forced to work side by side tracking a group of ATM bandits. The only lead in the case is from an anonymous tip which no one believed to be legitimate until another ATM machine is hijacked. The OIO team is spread thin as they attempt to keep watch on all possible targets while searching for the identities of the mysterious tipster and the group responsible for the thefts. As Alex's five year anniversary at the OIO quickly approaches in The Final Chapter, Parker and the team search for an unidentified bomber. How many close-calls and near-misses does a person get before luck runs out? Find out exactly what led Agent Parker to turn in her badge and join the private sector in the final installment of the prequel novella series.
