Description: Mark Sava, the former CIA station chief of Azerbaijan, has settled into the modest life of a professor in Baku-- until an assassin makes a brazen attempt on his life in the hallowed halls of the national library. The Azeri government deems Sava, with his complex past, a security threat and orders him out of the country immediately. When he receives cryptic photos that lead him to believe his friend John Decker has been kidnapped, Sava teams up with ex-IA spy and former girlfriend Daria Buckingham, and the two soon find themselves being chased by Chinese intelligence agents, caught in the middle of a secret conflict over oil that has the US and Iran tumbling headlong into war.
