Adam Pray's older brother Julian disappeared from his life when Adam was twelve years old. Now, years later, Adam gets a card from Julian asking him to meet on the Mediterranean island of Corfu. Adam goes to Corfu, only to be drawn into a toxic waste scam. Pray's old nemesis, Terrence Parker, CIA, is behind the phony waste disposal operation. The CIA, through its asset, Globus Enterprises, has contracted at top dollar to clean up the waste at U.S. military bases throughout Europe. Globus simply dumps the waste into undersea caves throughout the Aegean Sea. He has hired Julian Pray, who has spent years in the area sailing a small ketch, to locate suitable caverns. Pray finds himself caught in the crossfire between the renegade Parker, Colombian drug dealers, Fugger, the Israeli Mossad, a cop from Athens who won't take no for an answer, and a 3,000-year-old goddess with an attitude.
