The United States of America has developed a revolutionary new energy source by achieving sustained ignition in a nuclear fusion reaction. It has the potential to provide the world with unlimited cheap, clean energy, and change the geo-politics in the Middle East forever. But this cutting-edge technology and the scientist who developed it have disappeared. Megan Finch, the CIA’s top spy, is pushed back into service to pursue Malik Mernissi, the prime suspect. She has just twelve days. Her mission will take her from the glamour of the Manhattan ultra-wealthy to the exotic souks of Marrakech and the windswept isolation of the Moroccan west-coast, to retrieve the technology before it can be used against them.
