Compounding his troubles, Ari has saved a dark-haired revolutionary named Farah from being raped by government thugs, and she has turned his life around. Now he is caught in a web of intrigue, torn between his need to work with the military dictatorship to get the shot and his desire for this passionate revolutionary.

Finally . . . will Ari get the shot?At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
