Three government agencies. A missing husband's dangerous secrets. And the one man hired to protect her—or betray her.

When a terrorist attack devastates the US Embassy in Brazil, Miakoda Nez's husband vanishes into thin air. Her only lifeline is his final, cryptic instruction: pack up and run. With nothing but a suitcase, a weapon, and a trail of breadcrumbs, Miakoda takes to the highway. But the open road offers no freedom—only the suffocating realization that she is being hunted.

Undercover FBI agent Greyson is waiting at a desolate rest stop when Miakoda drives straight into a ambush. Intervening to save her, they barely escape with their lives. But just as they hit the asphalt, Greyson receives a chilling new mandate from his superiors: stay close to Miakoda, track her every move, and report her location daily.

Desperate and unaware of his true identity, Miakoda hires Greyson as her bodyguard. Together, they are plunged into a lethal web of international intrigue stretching from the CIA to the Oval Office. As Greyson is torn between his duty to his country and his fiercely brilliant Navajo client, the lines between protector and captor begin to blur.

With the government closing in, Miakoda must follow her husband's evidence trail to the bitter end. But in a game where everyone is lying, the most dangerous threat might be the man sitting right next to her.
