Ariel Pryce wakes up in Lisbon alone. Her husband is gone - no warning, no note, not answering his phone. Something is wrong. She starts with hotel security, then the police, then the American embassy, each time confronting questions she can't fully answer: What exactly is John doing in Lisbon? Who would want to harm him? And why does Ariel know so little about her new - and much younger - husband? The clock is ticking. Ariel is increasingly frustrated and desperate, and the one person in the world who can help ist the person she least wants to ask.
