Deep cover specialist Marc Portman uncovers a secret deal that could make billions in oil revenue . or topple two governments.
Portman´s latest assignment is providing back-up for a French intelligence agent sent to recover a hard drive from one of the most dangerous cities on the planet: Mogadishu in Somalia. What he hasn´t been told is that the device records secret negotiations between two leading western nations and a hardline terrorist organisation responsible for killing thousands of innocent people.
When the decision is taken to abandon the talks, anybody in the know immediately becomes a target to be silenced.
And Portman finds himself at the top of the list.
