A thriller unlike any you have ever read. A love strong enough to bring a tremor to your bones. A sacrifice powerful enough to make heaven weep. At the close of World War II, a shell-shocked solider, Jan Jovic, was forced to inflict a game of life and death on a peaceful Bosnian community. In a few short hours, this young man was confronted by more love-and hate-than most experience in a lifetime. Years later, Jan has become a world-renowned writer with widespread influence in the United States, his past buried deep in his memory. Until, at the most inopportune time, the game Jan witnessed comes back to haunt him . . . and unwittingly leads him to a beautiful broken woman caught in an underworld of crime. Jan must now defeat an evil rarely seen. But there is a price. One that even this war-scarred solider can't imagine.

This was my first Ted Dekker book, but it's probably also my last. The two villains, Karadzic and Lutz, were horrible, sadistic men. I know Dekker is trying to show the sacrificial quality of true love, but I found the descriptions of the cruel game in Bosnia and the seedy world of drug addiction to be neither entertaining or inspiring. The book seemed too long, and I got tired of Helen always going back to Glenn and the drugs.
