Diamond smugglers.
A police conspiracy.
High tech spies.
Assassins intent on derailing Middle East peace talks.
Customs Investigator James Winter must overcome them all if he is to save his career—and his life.
Winter, an ex-MI5 operative wrongly accused of colluding with a smuggling ring that has a suspicious knack of avoiding the traps set by his team, battles to clear his name. As his wife undergoes cancer treatment, he finds it hard to balance time at her bedside with action to vindicate himself.
After his suspension, he sets out to find how the smugglers manage the ring. An email from a bothersome high tech supplier prompts Winter to spring into action, putting him on the trail of a Mossad spy whom he discovered is somehow involved, and placing him right in front of the Syrian hit squad.

With the help of a dubious partner, Winter risks his life, but will he be able to stop an international conspiracy and clear his name?
