One night Jake's life is shaken when he gets a desperate phone call from one of his oldest friends, the head of security at the American Consulate. His friend needs help. An American undercover agent, working with the Consulate has been killed. There is a traitor, his friend is sure-a senior American official. He doesn't know who he can trust. That same night his friend is also murdered. Yet the Consulate is unwilling to investigate.
