While vacationing in Spain, a young doctor finds himself embroiled in a deadly conflict between rival gangs
Peter Ross just wanted a vacation. After years toiling in the radiology department of a large American hospital, he dreams of lying on a Spanish beach with a beautiful girl. The beach proves just as lovely as he hoped. But the girl turns out to be trouble.
Angela Locke is on the run from a pair of gangs waging war over a missing artifact, and she sucks Ross straight into the crossfire. From sunny Spain to rain-swept Paris, Ross's trip will take him into Europe's darkest corners. An ordinary man on the run for his life, he must uncover a centuries-old secret, or risk becoming its next victim.
