Who have you spoken to about me?
What do you know about Operation Wahasha?

These are the last words priest Jurgen Stiller hears before he is executed by a former terrorist known only by the codename 'Faust'.

Then the killer begins the hunt for Detective Sara Nowak.

Nowak is dangerously unaware that she is a target - until she is shot at in her own home.

As Nowak races to unmask her would-be assassin, the trail leads her back to West Germany, to a group of radical terrorist fanatics - and to a deadly question:

With Faust closing in, Nowak must find the answers before many more lives are taken - including her own.
