Fresh from his mission in The Judas Gate to eliminate one of al Qaeda's most valued agents, a traitor responsible for countless soldiers' deaths, Sean Dillon is back in a blistering new adventure.
The American President is entertained by the British Prime Minister on the terrace of the House of Commons. On the same day, London born Mullah Ali Salim makes a speech accusing the President of war crimes, offering a blessing to anyone who will assassinate him.
Dillon, Major Ferguson and Daniel Holley are called into action, aided by a new recruit, Captain Sara Gideon, a war hero in the Afghan conflict. They face a massive upsurge in terrorism from enemies near and far – all with links to al Qaeda.
