Adam Kellas, journalist, would-be thriller novelist, and failed lover lives in a world that is cracking apart. Divorced, unstable, and in the middle of life, Kellas is teetering toward self-destruction. He reluctantly accepts a London newspaper assignment to cover post-9/11 operations in the remote Afghan mountains. There he becomes smitten by Astrid Walsh, a tough, self-possessed American reporter. The two share a passionate night in a watchtower near a defunct airfield, and soon after Astrid disappears from Kellas's life.
