When a policeman arrives at Beth Grant's office, she assumes it has something to do with her ex-boyfriend, currently in gaol. It doesn't. It's about her husband, shot dead outside a jazz club in Zurich. A mysterious American woman. Amy Michaels, seen with him earlier, has disappeared, making her the main suspect in the case.
Although grief-stricken, Beth is furious and puzzled as to why Ian had been at the club in the first place. He didn't even like jazz. Why was he killed? And who is Amy Michaels? In Zurich, the jazz-club owner, Mike Novak, has little to tell Beth, but on her return to her hotel she is confronted by Amy Michaels, scared and alone in a foreign land. She didn't kill Ian, and Beth is the only person who can help her prove her innocence.
Beth enlists the aid of Novak but they soon find themselves being drawn deep into a world of assassins, treachery and murder – the clandestine world of the Cabal, a shadowy organization dedicated to eliminating those untouchable villains who live beyond the reach of the law. Once sanctioned by Western intelligence agencies, the Cabal has become little more than a death squad for those who can afford its services.
And now the Cabal have Beth and Novak firmly in their sights . . .
