200 miles from Amy's country home, 14-year-old Susie Delany falls for a dangerous and seductive man's promises of fame and fortune. Whisked away to a viper's nest masquerading as a tropical paradise, Susie hurtles toward a fate worse than death. A senator and a scheming CIA director recruit Amy for an 'off the books' mission, leading a rag-tag mercenary team out to end a vile billionaire's dark fantasy and rescue the teen victims of sex trafficking. Amy's instincts and her husband warn that this mission could jeopardize everything she loves. In Amy's absence, tragedy befalls her family, and Amy is confronted by a secret that two generations took to the grave. Now she must question everything she thought she knew about the Braxton clan. A new president authorizes a covert military operation to rescue a big donor's family from the vicious Nigerian terror group Boko Haram. Amy finds herself in charge of her largest military operation to date. When she pushes beyond the mission's parameters, she lands on the brink of capture and violent death. Amy grapples with a new-found demon and experiences an epiphany that might just end her career...if she survives. After years of grueling fieldwork, Amy faces her biggest challenge yet: learning to let go.
