Admiral Poindexter has a serious problem and only his friend's son can help. If the wrong people discover that he has asked for help, someone he loved would die-quickly, horribly. Snuffed out like a candle. Press, Rachel and Trace do what they can. It soon becomes obvious to Press that he's going to need the help of his own best friend since childhood-Lieutenant Commander James Harticutt, Navy SEAL Team 6. None of them could know then that a matter of weeks would have made a disastrous difference in the outcome of their search for an undercover CIA agent somewhere in the Middle East. --Provided by publisher.
