Conflicting Directives

Raya Bradford thought her days of romantic turbulence and mortally threatening secrets were behind her. But when a figure from her past resurfaces—only to vanish again under violent and mysterious circumstances—she’s pulled back into a world she barely understood the first time around.

In search of answers, Raya steps beyond the bounds of her old life and into the shadows Nyck once occupied. Recruited by a covert organization with global reach and a moral code as murky as its methods, she trains to become something she never imagined: an operative. Her mission? Surveillance and disruption of corporations whose power quietly erodes the lives of the vulnerable.

Sometimes, the hardest mission is knowing what to fight for.

Conflicting Directives is Book Two in “The Raya Dossiers”—a suspenseful, character-driven series about love, loyalty, and late-in-life reinvention.

This is the second romance suspense/thriller from novelist Rianna Bellini.
