Danny Lowenstein is a big shot war correspondent with the world at his feet. But when an interview goes wrong and he's ambushed on a lonely road in Iraq, questions are asked. Was it a set-up?

Yet theirs is also a tangled web of intense relationships and dark rivalries. Could one of them have become Danny's killer?
