The clock is ticking. 
 
To save her life you must take another. 
 
When Jack Morgan is invited to the luxurious Monaco coast to set up a new Private office, it seems like the perfect opportunity to relax in an iconic destination. 
 
But the vacation is quickly cut short when Jack's partner Justine is abducted. 
 
The kidnappers send Jack clear instructions - and a gun. If he wants to see the woman he loves again, he must take a life in exchange for hers. 
 
Jack soon becomes entangled in a dangerous conspiracy that will come to a head at the Monaco Grand Prix. 
 
Hours from disaster, Jack must find Justine and her kidnappers - and put a stop to whatever they have planned next.

Private Monaco

(Private 19)

A priest is murdered and a Private agent is the number one suspect. 
 
Jack Morgan is in Rome celebrating the opening of a new local Private office, when the party takes a deadly turn. Private agent Matteo Ricci is found at the party standing over the body of a dead priest with a gun in hand, swearing he did not kill the man. 
 
As Jack tries to prove Matteo's innocence, he uncovers a much deadlier conspiracy - which leads him straight to the heart of the Vatican. 
 
With corruption closing in on all sides, Jack must decide who he can trust before the city falls.
