Derek Stone didn't want to be on an oil rig off the coast of Tunisia, watching his bride die in a terrorist attack. He didn't want to be two hundred feet deep in the Mediterranean, out of oxygen and with two divers intent on killing him waiting above. But sometimes you have to do what you don't want to. Sometimes you don't have a choice. The question is: How do you do it and stay alive?Stone, a commercial oil-field diver, once worked as a saboteur for the Canadian Intelligence Service. Now He's working for himself--or so he thinks. As his quest for his wife's murderers leads him through the hills of Malta, the plains of Tunisia, and the coast of Italy, into the byzantine, murky world of spies and counterspies, thieves and betrayers, where nothing is as it seems, Stone begins to realize that he is being subtly manipulated. And the puppet-master is an international arms merchant, who is busy trafficking in NATO secrets and isn't about to let anyone get in his way.
