Publisher's summary

The twenty-first novel from New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey, a steamy thriller set in tropical Barbados.

She is a woman of a thousand faces, an assassin who could be anyone, anywhere.

The Trinidad contract was supposed to be simple: To make a living man become a dead man. When the job goes bad under the watchful eye of a bank security camera, there is nowhere for agent MX-401, known as Reaper, to hide from the fearsome local warlords, the Laventille Killers.

Her employers, the Barbarians, send her to Barbados, the next island over, barely two hundred miles away, with the LK's in hot pursuit of the woman who took many of their own. With the scant protection of a dank safe house, no passport, and no access to funds, an island paradise becomes her prison.

While she trawls for low-profile assignments to keep her skills sharp and a few dollars in her pocket, Reaper discovers that family ties run deep, on both sides of the fight. Will the woman everyone wants, who has lived countless lives in the service of others, finally discover who she really is?

In A Wanted Woman, New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey delivers an adrenaline-pumping rush of a listen.

Critic reviews

"A wild, thrilling ride." (Ebony)

"Another fine performance.... Not your typical thriller about a hired killer, but an immensely readable, hard-to-put-down tale." (Booklist)

"There’s a cinematic vibe here with James Bond fantastic escapes mixed with Game of Thrones Red Wedding-type gore as blood flows.... Anticipate demand." (Library Journal)

The Female Gideon!

I thought that this was a great listen! I loved Reaper. I really enjoyed this book sense I had been craving more of Gideon. No he didn't make any special appearance in this book. However Reaper really put me in the mind of him. Reaper was a bad Chic!! I really hope there will be a part 2 to this book I want to know who the heck is behind that "Red Door"! I also want to see Reaper and her sister find their dad. Mr. Dickey could you be nice and allow Gideon to join forces with the female assassin????

I loved it!

This book kept me on the edge of my seat wanting more!

I love the narrarators' voices too!

loved this book.

I loved this book, but adding voices to it, brilliant. I love Zoe Bell. Couldn't stop listening to it.

difficult to listen to

the story line is great. but the narrator makes it VERY difficult to listen to. it as if I am at a college lecture. dry, boring and not very lively.

Hoping for a sequel

It's started off slowly. Then the story pick up. At first didn't care much the narrator voice and accents but thank god Eric can write a great novel. It didn't matter at the end. I would recommend it if your in suspense and violence.

GREAT!!!!!

I love the plot of this book. Must see her go against Gideon. The two always find a way to stay alive.

Mr Dickey hits it out of the park again!

I drive trucks on a 600-mile turn around every night Monday through Friday and nothing makes the night go better than listening to a Jerome Dickey book and once again I'm thoroughly satisfied could not stop listening even when I got home!

Wow

This book was a rollercoaster! But soooo good! Couldn't put it down, but had to pause it on some intense parts. Great ending, left me wanting more! Definitely sending and recommending to friends!

Omg!

I love his books and was disappointed that there hasn't been more Gidion books. My husband refuses to read but fell in love w that series . Please make this your next series !!!! It was fast, detailed on edge of your seat... Hubby is from Trini do we love the references to the area /food. Characters are colorful , well written , blended -- just enough sex great ! Can't say enough well worth the credit or money!
