What if your sense of duty required you tobetray the man you love?
It's 1986, the heart of the Cold War. Marie Mitchell is anintelligence officer with the FBI. She's brilliant and talented, but she's alsoa black woman working in an all-white boys' club, and her career has stalledwith routine paperwork - until she's recruited to a shadowy task force aimed atundermining Thomas Sankara, the charismatic, revolutionary president of BurkinaFaso.
In the year that follows, Marie will observe Thomas, seducehim, and ultimately, have a hand in the coup that will bring him down. Butdoing so will change everything she believes about what it means to be a spy, alover and a good American.
