Samenvatting:

Rebecca Lamond is traumatized by the vicious murder of her husband during their honeymoon in Paris. She is shocked to learn that his last request is that she journey to the war-torn nation of Sierra Leone, in West Africa, to locate some medical supplies. Although her employers grant her leave from her job at a museum, they demand that on the same trip she also find and acquire three ancient wooden carvings. In Sierra Leone, the civil war is over but a far more lethal war is just beginning, and Rebecca is quickly surrounded by the violence and corruption of postwar Africa. Her main support and protection comes from Aaron Cavanaugh, a man to whom she is passionately drawn, but whose violent nature she fears. When she stumbles across the real reason for her husband’s murder, Rebecca realizes that her two tasks are linked and that her own life is in danger. One of the carvings that she has acquired gives the location of a hidden al-Qaeda camp in the rainforest of Sierra Leone, and Rebecca discovers that the terrorists are developing the perfect biological weapon to unleash on the world.
