Publisher's Synopsis
Against a tapestry of endless war in an ancient land, two people must learn to trust each other to save the life of another.
In the summer of 2001, insecure office worker Cat MacGregor is just trying to protect her heart and keep her job. But her world shatters forever when she finds she has been given power beyond imagining ... and she has no idea what to do with it. In the city of Kabul, one doctor refuses to submit to the religious fanatics ruling her country but she's running out of time as a deadly madman closes in. And deep in the high peaks of north Afghanistan, Lt. Col. Jack Wallace and Major Doug Stewart make contact with the failing resistance forces battling the Taliban and Al Qaeda. But Jack's got a gut feeling that something is about to go very, very wrong. A Taliban commander who is not everything he appears to be, an orphan street girl who has stolen a priceless artifact, and an American aid worker just trying to feed the people of Kabul... All will play out their roles against the impending storm of war while outside of time and space, two powerful beings struggle with the eternal questions of power, war, and love.
