The last thing Wara imagined when Alejo almost killed her is that she would become his partner in the organization CI. Their first assignment is in sultry Esfahan, where they need to find a controversial Iranian rock star, rumored to have converted to Christianity and been sent to his death. Sami of Ashavan was a project of a well-known church in the U.S., who rejoiced in the rock star’s conversion…until Iran arrested him on charges of Satan worship and rape.
To make amends for killing Noah, who Wara loved, Alejo’s new boss in CI has ordered him to take Noah’s place and be the man Wara loves. But every glimpse of Alejo is killing Wara, reminding her of what he has done and why she can not trust him. Ever.
When Wara and Alejo arrive in Iran, they find shell-shocked friends who have been caught in the crossfire of Sami’s arrest, including a fiery brother and sister rock band who have influence over millions of young Iranians. But what Alejo’s team finds is not what they expected. Who are these people, really?
Amid memories of murder and threats of execution, what kind of love is strong enough to shake the world?
