On the outskirts of Durban, Suzanne Fessey fights back during a vicious carjacking. She kills one thief but the other wounded, escapes with her baby strapped into the back seat. Called in to pursue the missing vehicle are helicopter pilot Nia Carras and local wildlife researcher Mike Dunn. But South Africa's police have even bigger problems- a suicide bomber has killed the American ambassador. As Mike and Nia track the missing baby through Zululand and Zimbabwe, they come to realise that the war on terror has arrived in their part of the world.
