The victim's husband is raking in funds through illegal dealings, and when field agent Patrick Hyde is sent to India to confirm SIS suspicions of a setup, he is able to free the captured agent. But when the two of them are left without support, they will have to go on the run through several Asian countries-all while Hyde's partner, Ros, is also caught up in the politician's machinations and targeted for death . . .
