This book is a very suspenseful tale about ex-Senator Matt O'Brien, in his quest for discovering what happened to the thousands of missing people in Bosnia. He uses his diplomatic position to form a task team to officially probe the matter. Little does he know what kind of trouble he'll run into, when his own life is at stake.
