After a youth he would rather forget, Jason Harrow has settled down, built a stable family life and become a pillar of principle in America’s mid-west. Then the phone rings and his past is on the other end of the line. A woman with whom he once shared a life of violence and desire claims her daughter is missing and Jason is the one man who can find her. Returning to New York City, Jason finds himself entangled in a murderous conspiracy only he can see and only he can stop, a plot that bizarrely links his private passions to the turmoil of a world at war.
