In Paul Eddy's follow-up to Flint, tenacious former London police officer Grace Flint has remarried and is now working full time for Aldus Cutter and the U.S. Financial Strike Force.

On the trail of Karl Gröber, a notorious money-launderer and former officer in the East German Stasi, Flint's world comes undone when Gröber murders the agent she has sent undercover into his organization and escapes the grasp of law enforcement. Her judgment in the operation now questioned, things get even darker for Flint when it begins to appear that her new husband, Ben, has been leaking information to Gröber. Worse still, Ben has disappeared.

But Grace Flint has never taken defeat lightly, and with fury that her entire marriage may have been a sham, she is soon on the trail of both Ben and Gröber. Working with German and British intelligence agencies to find the scent, she makes steady progress, but it becomes apparent that the Germans and the Brits may have interests of their own - interests which may be at cross-purposes with Flint's - and which may make them either valuable allies or dangerous foes.

Grace Flint remains a compelling character, and author Eddy further fleshes out the rich supporting cast in a story that moves from New York to the former East Germany to the coast of the Adriatic and on to France. More straight-ahead in its plotting and narrative mechanisms than its predecessor, Flint's Law is a bit more conventional, but every bit as well-written and propellingly readable.
