At the close of World War II, a shell-shocked soldier, Jan Jovic, was forced to inflict a game of life and death on a peaceful Bosnian community. In a few short hours, he was confronted by more love—and hate—than most people experience in a lifetime. Years later, Jan has become a world-renowned writer with widespread influence in the United States; his past is buried deep in his memory. Until, at the most inopportune time, the game Jan witnessed comes back to haunt him... and unwittingly leads him to a beautiful, broken woman caught in an underworld of crime. Jan must now confront an evil rarely seen. But there is a price—one that even this war-scarred soldier can’t imagine.
A thriller unlike any you have ever read. A love strong enough to bring a tremor to your bones. A sacrifice powerful enough to make heaven weep.
