A new and personal mission for Michaela 'Mike' Kingdom
When the brother-in-law of former CIA analyst Michaela 'Mike' Kingdom goes missing, she has very little to work with. Last heard of in Mlaga three weeks earlier, Mike doesn't know what name he was using, what country he was working in, or what he was doing. This is not going to be a routine missing person investigation.

Mike is reluctantly forced back into the field when a British government minister is killed in France, en route to Spain, but the death offers Mike a vital first clue to solving her brother-in-law's disappearance. How are the two incidents connected?
A geopolitical storm
The trail for answers leads Mike across Europe and into North Africa, where the competition for control of the region's natural resources brings a new level of danger for Mike. Can she unravel the mystery before hidden forces silence her?
