The Blue Hour Sanction

"For twenty years, the mysterious and deadly character of Adrienne Astra has wowed readers and propelled author Riley Cannon to become one of the bestselling novelists of all-time. Now, with Sunrise Kama Sutra, the final novel in Cannon's mega-selling 6-volume 'Round the Clock Series, about to be released, Cannon decides to pull back the curtain and give her fans what they have longed for: Adrienne Astra's origin story. In an exclusive, e-mailed-in, 2-question interview, famous book blogger Christine Harper asked the author, 'Why now?' And Cannon wrote, 'Because, before you discover how Adrienne's journey ends, you have to learn how it began.' When asked what the title of the novel would be, Cannon replied... The Blue Hour Sanction. With the publishing world in a frenzy over the interview, Riley Cannon prepares to sit down and tell the world how Adrienne Astra became Adrienne Astra. Then, the night before Cannon is to start writing the novel, she disappears, and her mega-agent, Topaz Kennedy, is forced to take drastic measures. The Blue Hour Sanction must be written and published within six months of the release of the series' fifth book, 3 a.m. Phone Call, to give readers enough time to get through the novel before Sunrise Kama Sutra is released six months later. Any hiccup in the promotional timeline will throw off the whole, glamorous ending to the series and stain Riley Cannon and Topaz Kennedy forever. Knowing all of this better than anyone else in the industry, Topaz Kennedy makes her audacious move: She calls Landon Beach and asks him--using Riley Cannon's notes--to write the novel. He accepts. The result is an origin story unlike anything readers and listeners have ever experienced before. How did a young woman from a small, rural town in Michigan become the most lethal assassin that the world has ever known? You are about to find out."--back cover.
