Description
In this brilliant debut, a young intern at the US Embassy in Ankara, Turkey, wakes up in a hospital to find herself at the center of an international crisis. The day before, a terrorist attack killed hundreds of Penny Kessler's colleagues and friends. Now a photograph of her emerging from the rubble has become the event's defining image -- and she's considered a crucial witness. But what actually happened? Penny barely has time to ask before discovering that her own government wants her dead.
