Stevens' debut novel has gotten rave reviews from publishing sources as well as other best selling authors. It has been described as gripping, ingenious, and impeccably paced. The main character, Vanessa "Michael" Monroe deals in inforamtion - expensive information - for corporations, heads of state, private clients, and anyone else who can pay for her unique brand of expertise. She grew up in and is very familiar with the lawless central Africa area but has left that behind and is building a new life and career in Dallas.
Then, a Texas oil billionaire hires her to find his daughter, who vanished in Africa four years earlier. It's not her usual line of work but she can't resist the challenge. Munroe finds herself back in the land of her childhood, betrayed, cut off from civilization, and left for dead.
