Casey's motives are pure, but her actions quickly become suspect and she's forced underground to prevent capture by her own people. Working with people she neither knows nor trusts, she learns Stefan withheld information that would have influenced her objectivity over the years; secrets that now threaten to destroy her and those she loves. Betrayal...that fine line between love and hate. The cost of betrayal...the number of lives of innocent people lost to kill one operative.
Not once, not twice, but three times she offers herself as bait to catch Reinhardt Kruger, the monster orchestrating the bombings. Not once, but twice she rendezvous with him and twice he has reduced the size of her little band of mercenaries in his wake to escape.
Faced with death on foreign soil by the enemy or imprisonment back in the states by her employer, the US Government, Casey does what she does best. She meets her adversary head on and spits on those responsible for the violence surround her.

Setting herself up as a fake mediator for U. S. interests, she conceives a dangerous strategy for gaining access to her target. Hurled into a relentless, death-dealing mission, she senses a multi-leveled web of deception tightening around her, forcing her to rely on people she neither knows nor trusts--any one of whom might sacrifice her life for his own corrupt motives.
