When anthropology professor Gideon Oliver is offered a teaching fellowship at US military bases 
in Germany, Sicily, Spain, and Holland, he wastes no time accepting. Stimulating courses to teach,
 a decent stipend, all expenses paid, plenty of interesting European travel . . . What's not to like?
It does not take him long to find out. On his first night, he is forced to fend off two desperate,
 black-clad men who have invaded his Heidelberg hotel room with intent to kill. And then there are
 a few trivial details that the recruiting agency forgot to mention-such as the fact that the two
 previous holders of the fellowship both met with mysterious ends.
From there, it is all downhill. Gideon finds himself the target in an unfamiliar game for which
 no one has bothered to give him the rules. What he does have is his own considerable intellect
 and his remarkable forensic skills. He will need them, for he is playing for some fairly high 
stakes: the security of Western Europe
