At forty, Steve Decker is one of America's most accomplished
anti-terrorist operatives. Then a bungled covert operation
kills twenty-three people in Rome and leaves Decker
shouldering the blame. Embittered by the fiasco, he retires
to the mountains of New Mexico and there meets an
extraordinary woman named Beth Dwyer. She changes his life.
Suddenly Decker has the very things he had lived so long
without: a beautiful, brilliant woman he longs to marry and
a future that could include children. But when a terrifying
assault rips his world apart, Beth disappears - leaving an
agonizing mystery in her wake. Who is this woman he loved so
completely, almost to the point of obsession? Is she still
alive? Was she captured by Decker's enemies or her own? Did
she love him or use him - possibly as bait in some sinister
plan? Reaching back into his shadowy past, Decker discovers
that two malicious - and diametrically opposed - forces have
been stalking him. To stay alive, Decker must use all his
carefully honed skills, stay one step ahead of his murderous
enemies, and pray that luck is on his side as he moves from
hunter to hunted, from the deserts of Santa Fe to the
streets of New York City. For Decker the stakes couldn't be
higher: Beth's life, Beth's love, and, most of all, the truth.
