Angela Bradley, a novice journalist and a widow, was reporting on an illegal immigration-smuggling tragedy when she met a man who would change her life forever. Angela discovered he was one of the most wanted data-security experts -- by both the U.S. Army and China’s People’s Liberation Army. Their lives crossed at a time when tensions between the United States and China had escalated over Taiwan Strait, and both countries were now heading to war. Hundreds of cities in the United States and China had been evacuated with millions of people dispersed. Massive protests broke out across the two countries. Looting was rampant. As the social environment rapidly deteriorated, Angela found herself in the most challenging turmoil ever: whether to protect the man she loves or save her country.
