Pete Maddox is the new CIA station chief in Venezuela but unlike his bureaucratic predecessor, he comes from the counterterrorism black ops world of the CIA. When he uncovers a Libyan terrorist training camp hidden in the Venezuelan Amazon jungle, he uses a coup against Hugo Chavez to make his move, a bold move that enrages the administrators back at Langley. Forced to stand down and being ordered to leave the country, the CIA assets he recruited are being hunted down by the head of the secret police including the woman he loves. Maddox will risk his career and his life to save her.
