Athena

Athena von Dietrich had been found not guilty of murdering her husband. The members of the jury, however, were suspect: Someone, at least one, had accepted a bribe. Everyone on the jury was tainted.

For Jonathan Michaelis, the allegations meant that he lost a presidential appointment. Harold Strang didn't lose anything, he just didn't like being accused. Michaelis was a professor; Strang a soldier of fortune. They had nothing in common except the desire to clear their names...and a trail of death behind them. Every-one they talked to was being killed and they knew some-one had them in their sights.

Athena herself, beautiful, intelligent, young, is the person they have to talk to, but she can't trust anyone. She's at the center of an international hunt for the secret her father discovered, a power source she refuses to reveal to anyone.

Even if she lives long enough to talk....
