Plot: Renowned conflict journalist Kathleen (Kat) Jacobs returns home to Johannesburg after a near-fatal incident in the Congo cuts her assignment short. While incomplete, her assignment is still a success: she discovers an incredible scoop. When Kat pitches the story to her editor, he turns her down--a strange decision for a man who's always on the hunt for a great story. However, she determinedly forges ahead, a decision that pitches her squarely against major political forces. When she declines to back off and keeps pushing ahead after numerous "notices", Kat suddenly finds herself on the run, aided only by her two exes--ex-husband and ex-military consultant. What ensues is the most dangerous cat-and-mouse chase of Kat's life. Not only are her career and reputation on the line, but also her life and her family's as well.
