From the Back Cover:
The lives and fate of hundreds of thousands of Americans and people abroad are threatened by diabolical twin plots; one by a bitter, narcissistic paraplegic, the other by a fanatical Jihadist. The two men play a game of one-upmanship to take control of the United States and the world in order to strong-arm the populace into a global dictatorship and one world religion. ICE Agent Jen Proctor, working undercover, flees for her life after obtaining the needed evidence to stop the horrific machinations about to take place. Backing up Proctor, is CIA Agent Conor Allen. As the clock winds down, Jen and Conor battle Mother Nature’s fury to try and get the intelligence to Washington, D.C., and to convince a recalcitrant President of the United States of the imminent threat to the United States and her Allies.
