John Stockman, an ex-CIA agent, has been imprisoned without reason or warrant in a place that has been almost forgotten - a place that doesn't even have a name. Now he is united with The Shepherd, Luke Turner, and is being taken out of his old life into one in which he can disappear and be safe. But, can he simply walk away from the terror, and the government deceivers, and leave them back there with their safe houses and riches, or must he and his small group of friends reach out through the danger and stop them?
