      "American missionary and ROTC cadet Tyler Ahls, long missing in Pakistan, has just surfaced, proselytizing in an Afghani terrorist propaganda video. For Omaha nurse Elisabeth Holland, it's a shock that her brother is even alive. Now she must ask herself a more grave question: Is he a hostage or a traitor? Seasoned FBI special agent Frank Schwaller is asking this too. He's come to Nebraska armed with countless hours of video, audio, and email surveillance. The object of his unyielding gaze is Elisabeth. But the more Schwaller uncovers about her--from her and Tyler's evangelical Christian upbringing to her shattered youthful dreams to her broken marriage to a drifter--the more mystifying Elisabeth and the two men in her life become. To find out the truth about these entwined lives--and the desperation that comes from love, fear, and the need to disappear--Agent Schwaller will discover how even the most lonesome corners of the Plains can be darkened by the long shadow of war."--Provided by publisher.
