Adriana's stuck between a rock and a very hard, very dangerous place. It's not the first time she's ever been in trouble, but it is the worst. When her twin sister calls and tells her she's going to be killed unless Adriana surrenders herself in half an hour, she figures she doesn't have much to lose.
