About this eBook
The fifth Raine Benares novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the SPI Files series.
Raine Benares is a seeker who finds lost things and people.

They've run elaborate scams before, but none involving this much money, government officials this highly ranked, or a war this close to starting...

Lisa is a voracious collector of fountain pens, teapots, and teacups, both vintage and modern. She lives on a small farm in North Carolina with her husband, three spoiled-rotten retired racing greyhounds, and enough deer and woodland creatures to fill a Disney movie.
