The book follows the life of a girl born in Afghanistan during the Russian occupation, before the fall of the Berlin Wall. She becomes a U.S. citizen because a CIA operative adopts her and brings her to America, renaming her Holly Smolkes. A beautiful but seriously flawed woman, she falls in love with the director of Homeland Security’s “Poison Well” unit, a group designed to stop terrorists who want to poison the water supply of the United States.
Holly Smolkes has a twin brother, left behind in Afghanistan when she was eight years old. He has become a leader of the terrorists.
The author, a journalist, was nominated twice for a Pulitzer in the 1960s for his undercover, investigative series in the New York World-Telegram & Sun called: "I Was A Subway Cop."
He wrote his first book, "Warrior Patient," over 50 years later.

It has an IndieBRAG Medallion and Awesome Indies approval. It has won many other awards, including being the sole medalist in Action/Adventure at the New Apple Book Awards.
