Description: Intelligence, espionage, and even war as we know it have been transformed by the War on Terror. With the CIA on the ropes, the armed forces stretched thin, and the need for inside information and action at an all-time high, the United States government and its allies have turned to private organizations to carry the load, companies like the one founded by Camille Black, former CIA counterterrorism specialist. Camille is approached by the CIA for an extremely important mission. Her goal is to track down and eliminate a man accused of selling arms to terrorist cells--but her quarry is her ex-fiance. Battling old feelings, but fueled by his disloyalty to both her and his country, Camille sets off into the shadows to find him. Dodging death daily, her hunt takes her way beyond the frontlines, and the further she goes the more the lines between good and evil begin to blur.--From publisher description.
