Title: Extreme denial
First published: 1996
Description: CIA operative Steve Decker leaves the spy world because of bureaucratic ineptitude that allows a terrorist attack to occur. Disgusted, he moves to picturesque Santa Fe and for the first time allows himself to think about something other than global intrigue and violence. Indeed, for the first time he commits himself to a relationship. But after his lover’s house explodes and she is seen escaping with an unknown man, Steve discovers that she has a mysterious past and that she knew he used to work for the CIA. Did she love him, or was she only using him as a bodyguard? Drawn back into the world of deceit and treachery, Steve will stop at nothing in his desperate cross-country quest to find his lover and learn the truth.
