Jake Hudley, a former US military operative, can’t believe his beloved is not coming home. His pain becomes unbearable when he tells his children. Fear turns to rage, and he blames the Iranian authorities for throwing his wife, Laila, into the most notorious prison in the world.

With the US government and the military refusing to help, Laila’s fate will mirror her brother’s—death by firing squad—unless Jake takes matters into his own hands. After sneaking into enemy territory, Jake finds himself in over his head and can’t help but wonder if he’s risked too much by placing not only his own life on the line but also the lives of his children, family, and friends to save one woman.

Meanwhile, Ali Momed, an unbending interrogator at Evin Prison and a loyal servant of the Iranian Islamic Regime, is determined to convert Jake’s wife, Laila, to Islam. To Ali, this is a mind game he must win. But as she remains steadfast in her beliefs, each passing week inches Laila toward the ultimate injustice of execution without a fair trial.

NSA/CIA agents track Jake closely because he possesses a classified military computer. Conspiracy theories and misinformation are spreading like a vicious virus in the US media. But armed with a vast knowledge of computers, the secrets of a US Satellite Surveillance System, and a military discipline he never truly ascribed to, Jake plans an impossible rescue mission.

Can Jake save Laila from execution without the intelligence community branding him a traitor?
