Klara Walldéen was brought up by her Swedish grandparents on a remote archipelago in the Baltic Sea, learning to fish and hunt and sail a boat through a storm. Now, as an aide in Brussels, she is learning how to navigate the world of politics—the lines between friend and enemy, truth and lies.
But Klara has just seen something she shouldn't have: a laptop containing information so sensitive that people will kill to keep it hidden. Suddenly she is thrown into a terrifying chase through Europe, with no idea who is hunting her or why.
Meanwhile, in Virginia, an old spy hides from his past. Once, he was a man of action, a spy so dedicated he abandoned his baby daughter to keep his cover. Now, the only thing he lives for is swimming in the local pool. He is the only man who can save Klara. And she is the only woman who can allow him to lay old ghosts to rest . . .
