Description

Tony Freeman rescued Mersiha when she was fighting for her life in war-torn Yugoslavia. Now she is his adopted daughter, the perfect all-American girl, and the past is another country.

The consequences of her actions are lethal, for Mersiha has unearthed a conspiracy of terrifying proportions . . .
