But when her mother doesn't return with the rest of her peacenik tour group, Willa fears her mother's bleeding heart may finally have gotten her into more trouble than she can get herself out of. But when Willa risks her career and passport by rushing to Cuba to retrace her mother's steps, she finds that nothing there is quite as it seems.

And in the meantime, newfound reporter friends'or are they CIA agents?'disappear as suddenly and inexplicably as her mother did. In a deadly game of cat and mouse, Willa follows her mother's trail from Havana to Mexico City, from California back to Havana'¦all the while keeping barely one step ahead of two angry governments and at least one ruthless killer.
