    About this ebook

    Professor Goldstein does not anticipate how staggering the odds against him will be before he embarks on a race that is a matter of life and death to get two bio-engineered soldiers he helped to create to Hampa before a rampaging CIA can get to them.
    Everybody knows Hampa, the criminal master mind who can make anybody disappear without a trace. But what Goldstein does not count on is just how far the CIA’s reach can get. They are loath to let the funds they invested in the bio-engineering program to go down the drain and even more determined to continue reaping the full benefits of the program.
    Everything that can go wrong goes wrong.
    Goldstein’s family are kidnapped in the night, right from the safe house where he planted them. D and Adam, The bio-engineered soldiers are more interested in reconnecting with their family than they are about their safety. Joan Hill, the only person who can help Goldstein is still loyal to the CIA. All it will take to unravel all of his efforts is a single call from her.
    In the end getting to Hampa may be more than just about filling a car and hopping in for a cross country ride. There are too many stops along the way and each of them have been carefully designed to be the last.
