Maxim Jakubowski

Killing Eve meets Mr and Mrs Smith

In the neon-lit world of seduction and secrets, Cornelia, a mesmerizing stripper, finds herself pulled into a sinister web spun by the enigmatic organization known only as 'The Bureau'. Recruited for her hidden talents, she becomes an unlikely assassin, caught between the dance floor and a life of deadly precision.

But Cornelia harbours a secret passion that sets her apart from the other killers - she has a penchant for rare books. With each mission she completes, Cornelia indulges her obsession, using her ill-gotten gains to amass a collection that becomes both her refuge and her escape.

Amidst the chaos and danger, Cornelia's path intertwines with Hopley, a fellow assassin haunted by his past. Unwittingly drawn together by their shared world of shadows, they navigate a treacherous landscape where trust is scarce, and survival is paramount.

As their forbidden romance blooms amidst the darkness, Cornelia and Hopley find solace in each other's arms, their connection a fragile thread of love against a backdrop of deceit and danger. Yet, as they delve deeper into the heart of The Bureau, they discover a haunting truth that threatens to tear them apart.

In this exotic and gripping thriller, where death is a dance partner and love flickers in the shadows, Cornelia must confront her own loneliness and unravel the mysteries that surround her. Will she find redemption and a chance at a life beyond the deadly stage? Or will the sinister forces at play consume her, leaving only echoes of a lost love in their wake?
