When a French cultural attaché vanishes from a Bosphorus gala without a trace, the only person she trusts to find her isn’t the police it’s the woman she trained beside years ago, before both their careers were supposed to end quietly.Sabine Torres left intelligence work behind for a reason. But a coded message sent six hours after her old friend Léa Fontaine disappeared pulls her back into a world of consulate secrets, forged antiquities, and sanctioned arms money moving through Istanbul’s oldest auction houses. The Turkish intelligence officer assigned to watch her, Kerem Aydin, was ordered to report everything she finds and say nothing about what his own service already knows.As Sabine follows Léa’s trail from a rooftop above the Golden Horn to a warehouse on the shipping lanes, she and Kerem are forced to choose, again and again, between the orders they were given and the truth they’re uncovering together. Every lead brings them closer to a network that reaches far above one missing diplomat and closer to each other, in ways neither of them has the safety margin to survive being wrong about.With the clock running out on a ransom that was never meant to be honored, Sabine has forty-eight hours to decide who she can trust: the ally with a badge that may not mean what it claims, or the instincts that once cost her everything.
