Set in Washington, DC, this fascinating thriller of unparalleled suspense dares to explore an unthinkable abuse of power and criminal conspiracy: a vicious murder involving the US President and a cover-up orchestrated by his zealously loyal Chief of Staff and the Secret Service. But, unknown to the President and his lackeys, one unlikely witness saw everything.
Trapped behind a two-way mirror in a country house in Maryland, Luther Whitney, a professional burglar, witnessed an event that destroyed his faith in justice. Whitney may be outside the law but even he has his limits. Now he is the property at stake. For, by the time he escapes across a cornfield, pursued by two Secret Service agents, a young woman has been sexually assaulted, then shot dead. And a breathtaking cover-up has been set in motion.
