Journalist Farah Hafez is after another killer story. But at what risk to herself? What connects the following? War correspondent Raylan Chapelle suffering a horrifying experience in Saigon, 1965. Newsman Paul Chapelle, thirty years later, in Moscow to investigate an attack on his former colleague Anya Kozlova. Farah herself, in the garden of the presidential palace in Kabul, forced to relive a traumatic event from her childhood. Different people. Different places. Different times. But all entangled by threads of love and war -- threads that Farah can't help but unravel, no matter the cost.

Journalist Farah Hafez has been kidnapped. Detained in Russia, she is forced to pledge her allegiance to a terrorist group on camera. Now sought by international security and members of the criminal class alike, Farah flees to Jakarta. If she is ever going to regain her freedom, she needs to discover the root of the evil that bought her here. The problem is that discovering this might cost Farah her life.

In het Amsterdamse Bos wordt een Oosters jongetje, verkleed als danseresje, aangereden en voor dood achtergelaten. Hij spreekt slechts één woord, in Farsi: ‘Plar’, vader. Journaliste Farah Hafez duikt in de zaak en doet de nationale politiek vervolgens schudden op haar grondvesten. Maar ze haalt tegelijkertijd de demonen uit haar eigen jeugd keihard naar boven.
