In a relentless race against the clock, Johnny finds: a dead man’s last message, a beautiful woman falling into his arms, a hidden photograph, and three unknown women whose initials spell out an A B C code.

But Johnny also finds that in the murderous, kill-or-be-killed world of international espionage, learning one’s ABCs is not quite enough when the game is deadly and the stakes are sky high.
