When CIA analyst Grace Chancellor is taken prisoner in the
lawless mountains of Afghanistan, Griff Cabot believes
only one man has any chance of getting her out alive.
Landon James, a former member of the External Security
Team, knows the country and its people better than anyone
in the agency. Besides, Landon and Grace have a lot of
personal history that leads Griff to believe he won’t turn
down the request to mount a rescue attempt.
Although it had taken Landon years to forget the woman who
walked away because she wanted a commitment he couldn’t
give, he is more than willing to go after Grace. The
mission, however, will be on his terms. The renegade agent
has his own score to settle in a country where he once
operated undercover.
What Landon doesn’t realize is that not everyone in the
CIA is anxious to have Grace return. Forced to fight
hostile tribesmen and perhaps even his own countrymen,
Landon discovers that he is again falling in love with
Grace Chancellor and that the same questions that drove
them apart before still have no answers.
