The Devil's Garden

Meer over het boek

Relief worker Kelly Trost -- the headstrong daughter of a prominent U.S. senator -- has vanished into the dark heart of a lawless, oil-rich nation struggling through a violent rebirth. Only one American, Lt. Colonel Evan Burton, has the courage and the local expertise to track down the missing young woman. But it will be a desperate and dangerous search that will plunge the disillusioned career soldier into the lethal chaos of a war-torn country controlled by gangsters, religious zealots, warlords, oil executives, mutinous generals, and foreign spies. For an innocent has become a bargaining chip in a cold and ruthless global game in which the fate of nations comes down to the fate of two human beings.
