Saskia loves her new dream job in Lyon, France, investigating financial systems for the Friendly Society Bank. In her free time, she indulges her second passion, bike riding.


She's astonished when a stranger accuses her of murder, and even more bewildered when Europe's top law enforcement agencies ask her to trace money trails that could lead to some of Europe's criminal masterminds. Somehow, she must learn how to present an innocent face to the criminals who begin to track her every move as she delves into the secrets they think are hidden in the cyber world.

When her family and friends receive death threats, she's terrified, but it's too late to stop her clandestine work. There's a small window of opportunity for her to save herself and those she loves while bringing down an evil network … and she has no way of knowing if her strategy will work.
