A 1995 job in Ecuador places Gail Travis inside the mercenary organization of General Anthony Edward Azelton. Her job for Ecuador was to deliver intelligence on them, until the war begins and they become the enemy. Despite having become the General's lover, she now must take them down from the inside. To do so, she must kill Azelton in her bed, but because she has fallen in love with him, she finds she cannot do this. She destroys their mountain fortress for the Ecuadorans, but Azelton and the core of his group escapes. The story picks up in 2013. Gail is now forty-five, quite wealthy and running her own crew with partners and best friends, Donna O'Keefe and Emmond Boucher, taking down international drug organizations for the asset forfeitures. While preparing for such a job in England, she is approached by Interpol Captain Jim Groves. He informs her that her family photos have turned up in the emails of the man who is her daughter, Jean's, 'boyfriend', and have been sent to someone who may be connected to Azelton's newest organization. Realizing that Jean is in imminent danger, Gail flies home immediately with Groves, but they are too late. Her Interpol guards are dead and Jean is gone. The brutal and ruthless Piranha Oro resurfaces as she embarks on the hunt to find the General's current lair, for which Interpol has been searching for a decade. Is Interpol on her side, or just using her for bait? What does Azelton want with Jean? Does he still love Gail, or does he want to kill her for destroying his South American job? The only way Gail will find out is by allowing herself to be captured, and try to do what she does best ... take them down from the inside.
