Francesca Page has a career breaking story and she can't wait to get it typed up and sent to her editor, Elizabeth Crowder. She even has a headline thought out, "Chinese General Develops Plot Against the United States." However, she's accosted by two men masquerading as police officers outside of her office. Using her briefcase as a weapon, she escapes to her car but a truck meets her head-on on the highway and Francesca's story dies with her.
However, her father, former CIA Agent Craig Page, believes his daughter was murdered, not a victim of an automobile accident. He begins to investigate on his own, and then including Francesca's editor Elizabeth. But China isn't the only conspirator in this intriguing international thriller; Iran is another as well as an American - someone Craig knows from his days in the CIA.

Danger lurks around every corner as well as heart-pumping action and chilling consequences from the twisted masterminds. With imperfect but memorable characters and a complex and intriguing plot, this chilling thriller is an engrossing story!
