Bombs, babes and bullets – and America’s coolest covert agent Jake Fonko is up to his neck in it all. Ex-surfer Jake Fonko’s latest mission – locate a former CIA asset gone missing in Cambodia – has his Army Ranger instincts on full alert. He might be handsome, fit and a decorated warrior, but he’s certainly no international spy. But Jake, ever the good soldier, agrees to the CIA’s directive, trudging over the border to Phnom Penh. Even with few leads, everything goes well – until the bloodthirsty Khmer Rouge roars into town. That’s not cool at all, because they clap Jake in Tuol Sleng torture chamber while they gear up their killing fields. Relying on his training, keen observations and ironic sense of humor might not be enough to save him. And one surprise after another pops up on his way to the wild truth. Maybe that asset was never really missing at all.
