About

He was in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong person.

 Now, he’s forced to assume an identity from his past.

 CIA covert operative Titus Ray always figured one day he might encounter someone who knew him as a different person from a previous operation. He just never expected it to happen on a family vacation.

 It was the wrong place . . .

 While vacationing in Bridgetown, Barbados, Titus suddenly finds himself face-to-face with an Iranian businessman who knew him as Hammid Salimi when he was living in Tehran during a deep-cover operation. Forced to resume his old identity, Titus learns of a Russian government scheme to help Iran avoid strict economic sanctions imposed on them by the U.S.

 It was the wrong time . . .

 When Hammid Salimi receives an invitation to attend a party on the island where both Russian and Iranian bankers will be present, Titus risks his life to learn more about Russia’s plans to aid the Iranian regime. 

 It was the wrong person . . .

 After Titus learns the Russians, in partnership with some Iranian investors, have developed a new banking transaction software, the Agency sends Titus to Beirut to participate in the beta testing of the computer program, where he discovers a Russian businessman is not who he claims to be, a discovery that almost costs Titus his life. 

 It was the wrong place, wrong time, and wrong person, but it was the right decision.

 The decision Titus made to resume his old identity could have had disastrous consequences. Instead, it caused him to rely on his faith, confront his anger issues, and depend on the power of prayer.

 Book VII in the Titus Ray Thriller Series takes Titus on a perilous journey from Barbados to Beirut. Along the way, Titus uncovers his boss’s secrets, deals with an obnoxious co-worker, and falls in love with Nikki all over again.

Praise for this book

I just finished Three Steps Away, where the characters once again come alive in her books. The assignments unravel in the best way, even when there is a snag, the reader is sitting there waiting for a resolution to happen. Or not! Which will it be? In this novel, the game changer was a biggie. Leave it to Titus to be part of the game changer and the resolution. It amazes me that with each book in this series, I become more interested in all the branches working to fulfill an operation to a successful end. Not to mention the gadgets the operative get to use, the travel to countries I won't ever get to visit, but they come alive for me through Luana's superb writing. You won't be sorry to start with Book 1 and continue reading each new release.
