In the red-hot cauldron of Central European intrigue and treachery, John Allison, American arms dealer, is a man with a mission.

The consignment of rifles that he has been handling has gone missing. Ordered by his government to retrieve it he follows a trail which leads him into a world of double-cross, murder, seductive women, and a discovery far more shattering than the rifles themselves.
