Cyrus Hassani is out for blood. For the past four years, the former deep-cover agent has been as close to happy as a broken man can be—deeply in love with his beautiful and brilliant wife, Layla, raising their precociously adorable daughter Cerise, and building a new life in Israel. All with a bounty on his head. But when an Iranian terrorist group bombs a popular New York City restaurant, and his wife Layla is listed as among the dead, Cyrus blames himself for letting his guard down and for thinking a security detail was enough to protect Layla while she was in the city curating her first art show.She can’t be dead.Deep down in his soul, Cyrus believes Layla is alive—that the terrorists kidnapped her to draw him out. He's ready to fight but the clock is ticking—Cyrus must stop the plot and find Layla before the next bomb goes off.
