Description
Twelve years after her sister's disappearance, a daring rescue mission is set in motion. The story of a Korean American teenager's kidnapping by North Korean operatives in 1998 is expertly woven together with two other narrative threads. A North Korean peasant woman's discovery of a forbidden international aid balloon sets her on a path to a lucrative black-market business, while a high-ranking North Korean official uncovers a shocking family secret that could mean his downfall.
As the novel progresses, these threads converge in unexpected ways, building towards an explosive and unforgettable climax. With its intricate plot and surprising connections, this gripping thriller will keep you on the edge of your seat.
