Throughout those years, the closeness and the commitment to each other became the cornerstone of their existence. Now, as they gather in their old family home, the two men and three women wonder if this will be the last time fate will allow them to enjoy each others company and conversation. Each has succeeded and moved on to careers within the framework of the contemporary world of politics, greed, and war. But Edwards position in covert intelligence with the Secret Service places him at extreme risk. During the family gathering, he receives two cryptic messages: We will come for you in eighteen hours, and We will meet in Samarkand.
