About this listen
When everyone else dies trying…they call her.
For four centuries, the Order of the King’s Cross has worked in the shadows to protect Promethean society. Known only to the King and his closest advisors, the agents of the Order carry out their monarch’s will throughout the Federated Planets and their neighboring star nations, cleaning up messes, investigating heinous crimes, and most often, eliminating threats.
Heather Kilgore is one of the deadliest agents the Order has ever trained. Young, focused, and coldly efficient, the King sends her in when all else has failed. But when a man she once called her love, a traitor to his star nation, turns up dead under mysterious circumstances, Kilgore may have finally met the mission she can’t complete.
Partnered with an old mentor turned rival and operating behind enemy lines, Heather Kilgore must discover who and what killed Commander Connor Monroe before everyone else around her turns up dead. What she’ll find is a shocking truth, a dastardly betrayal, and a trail of bodies leading to a secret that will threaten the very existence of her star nation.
Spy thriller meets science fiction action adventure and space opera in this exciting new complementary series in the universe of The Worst Ship in the Fleet and Dumb Luck and Dead Heroes. You won’t be able to put this book down as you work with Heather Kilgore to try to discover what killed the only man she’s ever loved, and what she’ll need to do to save her kingdom from ruin.

"Action thrillers are a fun genre as they're often page-turners, and The Forgotten Alphabet is definitely that. It's the 17th book in The Blackwell Files series, but it's the first one for me. Steven F. Freeman is such a talented author that he skillfully mentions critical parts of previous novels so the reader new to the series is not left behind. I loved every second of this book; the events are plausible, the flawed characters are all relatable, and the revelation of the mastermind shocked me. There's nothing to fault in this story—it's heart-racingly brilliant. I'm already a new fan ...

Story
Halley is on the run from an interplanetary political scandal that has put a huge target on her back. She heads for what seems like the perfect place to lay low: a gigantic space barge storing the cryogenically frozen bodies of Earth’s most fortunate citizens from more than a century ago… The cryo program, created by trillionaire tech genius Zale Winfeld, is long defunct, and the AI hologram "hosts," ghoulishly created in the likeness of Winfeld’s three adult children, are glitchy. The ship feels like a crypt, and the isolation gets to Halley almost immediately.

Excellent story & narration!
This was my first experience with an audiobook and it didn’t disappoint! I’m already a huge fan of Skyler Ramirez’s Dumb Luck & Dead Heroes books so I already knew the story would be excellent and this edition didn’t disappoint! Can’t wait to listen to the sequels!

A fantastic and exciting science fiction thriller!
Review of “Rogue Agent” by Skyler Ramirez (audiobook)
This is an attention grabbing, exciting, and very intriguing science fiction thriller set in an era when faster than light travel between distant star systems has been possible for many centuries.
This story’s focal character is Heather Kilgore, an Agent of the Order of the King’s Cross, a shadowy organization of assassin/spies that act at the bequest of the King (and sometimes Queen) of the Federated Systems of Prometheus. Kilgore is given the assignment to investigate the death of Conner Monroe, former Naval Commander of Prometheus who defected to the Koratan Confederacy, and whose body was found on the planet Hudson outside the Koratan Embassy.
Hudson is part of one of three adjacent systems that fall on the Harper Line, an area of space where control is contested between Prometheus and the Koratans, who are long term enemies and have been engaged in a mostly cold war for centuries. Kilgore and her former mentor Tabitha Lowry are immediately sent to Hudson on the assigned covert mission.
I won’t provide any further details about the story because I want listeners to have the pleasure of experiencing it for themselves. I will say that the narrative includes many unexpected developments and there is plenty of edge of your seat excitement! This tale is anything but predictable and you definitely won’t see the various twists and turns, or the eventual resolution, coming!
The storyline is very creative and compelling and it kept me engrossed from the first page through the very end. The characters are complex and well developed and drawn and they engaged my compassion in spite of my expectations (I didn’t expect to feel sympathetic towards assassins)!
The narrator, Madeleine Brolly, is excellent and does a great job of bringing the characters, and the overall narrative, to life.
I truly enjoyed this audiobook and I think it’s a superb example of its genre. I definitely recommend it and I look forward to listening to the next audiobook in the series. This was my first encounter with an audiobook by this author and I am very happy to have found a new favorite creator in this medium! I highly recommend this audiobook (or book if you’re not into audio). Get it - you won’t be disappointed!

A Decent Story
There were things I liked about the story, but in the end I didn't feel amazed. I leave the 5-star reviews for those kinds of books.
There were some intricate plot details that I enjoyed about the story, but in the end I don't feel like there was enough emotion involved. It felt more like a head-game kind of book. I understand that these are agents, but at some point one of these agents defected (let their emotions dictate their behaviour). I felt that could have been felt a bit more by the reader somehow. As it is, I just don't recall anything, so it must not have been that impactful (to me at least).
The use of Kilgore, Tabitha, Heather, Lowry confused me enough in the end that I didn't really know or care that much who won in the end. A fight between two skilled women agents with a random name thrown in means that one will win. Hopefully its the good one. At one point there was a lot of emphasis on "the redhead," but even that isn't used to actually help the reader out.
At the end, with the x-lover being still alive, it was anti-climactic since the agent didn't think it was very exciting to see him alive. It seems to me that the writer thought it clever, but it just made it less impactful to me. For as much as these women were scarred and basing decisions on their emotions, I finished the book feeling like there wasn't anything memorable about the book.
