El Chorrillo

In El Chorrillo, Kel Hamilton is an agent working for the president, in league with the woman he abandoned as a lover eight years ago, in a tense secret war against elements of the government that seek to destroy the administration. The president has no knowledge of Kel's existence, but he considers the woman, Shannon McDowell as his most trusted aide. Shannon operates currently out of the US Embassy in Panama City, seeking to uncover the truth of a threatening terrorist group called the Red Line Front, which Kel has discovered is not a foreign entity at all but part of the clandestine forces threatening the administration.

The danger to the administration brings Kel and Shannon back into contact and at first they work together in an uneasy peace, but their love is renewed, stronger than ever despite the likelihood neither will survive to make a life together.
