Synopsis

A compelling story of imperialistic treachery and greed cast on a broad canvas stretching from Capitol Hill and Wall Street to Pakistan and India, this portrayal of manipulation and dominion over the world s energy resources is sensitively told in intimate human terms. A French journalist found dead in a Karachi hotel leaves behind a young American widow, Cassandra, who takes a foreign-service post in New Delhi in an attempt to bury his ghost. Thrown into the heart of geopolitical struggles and set against a backdrop of nuclear detonations, embassy bombings, and missile strikes on terrorist camps, Cassandra begins an affair with a young Pakistani BBC journalist that launches her into a dangerous, suspense-filled journey that reits the forming of Al Qaeda and glimpses into a horrific future event in 2001.
