The mission is on. Wallace and Kittering are being sent to Afghanistan to look for the information hidden by David MacMillan before the Taliban arrested him as a suspected spy. Left behind, Tara finds herself with a little too much time on her hands and no real outlet for channeling her energy. Sure, she still has appointments with the staff psychologist to discuss any trauma following her run-in with the Russian Mafia, but that doesn't really scratch the itch. Instead, Tara settles for a night on the town and the distractions it has to offer. The latest in the ongoing espionage saga by noted author Greg Rucka (Detective Comics) features slick artwork by the team of Brian Hurtt (Captain America #50) and Christine Norrie (Hopeless Savages), with a gorgeous painted cover by Dr. Mid-Nite artist John K. Snyder III. MATURE READERS b&w, 32pgs. Cover price $2.95.
