![]() ![]() Still, many fans of the TV series will want to check this one out. Anyone familiar with standard genre tropes, such as the spy's significant other who demands a choice between work and family, will find them in droves. ![]() Eve gets on the trail of a shadowy Russian cabal, but the focus, again, is on her love-hate relationship with her rival. ![]() Cradle, with the help of Villanelle, turns the tables on Eve, setting off a predictable cat-and-mouse game. Eve finds a place with MI6, and tricks the traitorous Cradle into a meeting, where she offers him a deal in exchange for information about those who persuaded him to work for Russian interests. Sandra Oh won a Golden Globe and a SAG award for the role of Eve. This is the follow up novel to the original Killing Eve, the basis for the BBC series, available in the USA on BBCA (BBC America). Eve once worked for MI5, where she identified a pattern to assassinations committed by a woman who had targeted "prominent figures in politics and organized crime." Her efforts to prevent another murder were blocked by a superior, Dennis Cradle, and led to her dismissal. Audiobook No Tomorrow (Killing Eve 2) by Luke Jennings Excellent suspense with hooks and a twisted ending. ![]() Jennings's pallid second thriller featuring British intelligence agent Eve Polastri and her arch-nemesis, Villanelle (after 2018's Codename Villanelle), lacks the appeal of the BBC America TV series Killing Eve based on the earlier book. ![]()
