Maria is out of prison, exonerated from a murder she still doesn’t remember. But even though she’s a free woman, she’s on the run.

A file exists, the contents of which could mean life or death for Maria. And members of the Project, the ruthless underground organization that framed her for murder, are after her because of it.

To escape their grasp, she must find the file and retreat to the safety of her family home in Spain. Little does she know that this might be the most dangerous place of all, and that to survive, she’ll have to keep one step ahead.
