163,95 kr. India Fox was born lucky. With an ambassador father, raised in foreign embassies, and with an ear for languages, she sizzles with impatience. She'll use everything to get what she wants, to be a television foreign correspondent, going, she promises herself, "where the bullets are flying." Hardly looking back at three astonishing breaks and what it took to get them, she lands a job at World Broadcast News and is sent to Beirut just as the Middle East is set to explode. The British correspondent Jack Spear takes her on an erratic pace into one set of intrigues, then another. He's a compelling romantic interest, but she has her own ambitions. She pushes too far in an interview with Syria's President Assad, has a scare in a Syrian prison, on her own, instigates a foray into a terrorist camp. The CIA becomes interested in this blonde who has garnered vital information into the mechanisms of Middle East terror groups. Will she work for the agency?

She hides her elegant angles in baggy sweaters, her sky blue eyes behind dark glasses and returns to university. Her last obstacle to her PhD is her famous doctoral thesis chairman who harbors an impatience with women in the sciences. A collision of the heart is certain when the two realize their IQ's don't stand a chance against the inevitable.
