The world's most powerful man . . . held ransom by the world's most wanted terrorist.
A chilling message is delivered to the US President by the world's most wanted terrorist - a message that begins a daring siege, and America's worst nightmare.
A terrorist cell hidden deep in the American capitol is ready to unleash a terrifying new secret weapon of mass destruction - one so powerful it can decimate Washington and tear apart the Russian Federation - unless their demands are met within seven days.
When Washington and Moscow agree a joint plan to hunt down the terrorists and neutralise their threat before the deadline expires, FBI counter-terrorist expert Jack Collins is put on charge of the manhunt alongside Alexei Kursk, one of Russia's top investigators.
For them the hunt is personal: Collins has vowed to exact revenge for his only son, the victim of an Islamic terrorist attack. And one of the terrorists is a friend Alexei Kursk has worshipped all his life.
As the siege rapidly escalates to a global crisis, with the fate of nations in the balance and millions of lives at stake, the President of the United States is forced to decide whether to accept humiliating defeat, or face the destruction of America's capitol.
And in a frantic game of pursuit, Collins and Kursk find themselves pitted not only against a ruthless terrorist enemy, but against each other.
Glenn Meade's chilling and prescient new novel blurs the line between fact and fiction and takes the reader on a rollercoaster suspense narrative that is all too close to coming true . . .
