Amid the cauldron of the civil wars of the Middle East and Africa, veteran correspondent Harper Harris (Still Life in a Red Dress) gets too close to the action in Syria, Iraq, and Sierra Leone, risking everything in her quest to find an elusive arms dealer, Jack Xantis, her would-be savior and probable executioner. On assignment, Harper is attempting to flee Syria when she is captured by the Syrian army. She is unexpectedly rescued by Xantis, an enigmatic deal-maker who persuades her to repay the favor by delivering a message to a Syrian dissident in Beirut. Something goes terribly wrong, and with glaring clarity Harper realizes, almost too late, that betrayal and murder are a matter of course in the vicious world of geopolitics and war. A month later, Jack Xantis is reportedly killed in a car bombing-a fitting end for a man whose profession was chaos. However, ATF agent Harlan Quist doesn't believe the report is true and seeks out the one reporter who wants to find Xantis more than he does. Chased by Xantis' ex-mentor, who has his own score to settle, they will hunt down the man whose sins have changed so many lives, even if it means losing their own.
