Predrag's quest to capture Jovana ended in failure, but at first it looks like that may have been enough to win back his place in Serbia's ruling class. Then, a shocking reversal strips him of his rank in the Yugoslav People's Army. Now a fugitive, he must struggle to survive on the margins of the fighting. Seeking redemption, he comes face to face with the human suffering caused by his father's plan to take over Yugoslavia by force. His fate may be in the hands of his vengeful half-brother, who has embarked on his own mission to kill Jovana and cleanse Yugoslavia of its enemies.
As the conflict in Yugoslavia escalates, Jovana and Predrag find themselves on the front lines, at risk of being named enemies by both sides; they begin to question whether the side they are on is really the right one.
