[Read by Melanie Ewbank and Patrick Lawlor]A thrilling novel of steadfast courage, intimate passions, and the profound risks that are taken in the name of love . . . There are eight words Meg Moore has never been able to forget: the United States refuses to negotiate with terrorists. But what was merely a chilling warning when she worked as a translator in a European embassy now spells out a potential death sentence for her daughter and grandmother, who have been kidnapped by a lethal group called the Extremists. Meg has to act--and quickly. Going against everything she was taught, she will now do anything to meet their unspeakable demands; anything--even kill--to save her child. -- When Navy SEAL Lieutenant, junior grade, John Nilsson is summoned to Washington, DC, by the FBI to help negotiate a hostage situation, the last person he expects to see holding a foreign ambassador at gunpoint is Meg.
