Growing up in a small town, Sandy Paull dreams of something better. When she lands a job with one of London's leading theatrical agencies her dreams appear to be coming true, particularly when she meets Michael McCann, her handsome and dynamic boss. Ellen Shelby, as a highly respected and successful agent, has Hollywood at her feet. But she is as insecure with relationships as she is confident with deals.

And when she meets her British rival, Michael McCann, there is a powerful attraction between them that they are powerless to deny. But Michelle, the woman Michael once loved and lost, still haunts his thoughts. And when dramatic developments erupt in South America, he is pulled back into the past, into a nightmare of untenable proportions as a notorious death squad begins closing in on those he loves.
