Step into the shadowy streets of Cairo as Rocky Jordan faces his most dangerous case yet.

The air crackles with tension as Rocky must navigate treacherous alleys, interrogate shifty informants, and outmaneuver criminals who'll stop at nothing to silence the stranger's deadly secret. Jack Andrews' commanding voice guides us through each twist and turn, while the authentic sounds of Cairo—the clink of glasses, the murmur of conversations in foreign tongues, the distant call to prayer—transport listeners directly into the heart of danger.
