A masterfully complex story of Islamic terrorism and espionage beginning with an unnerving, catastrophic global assault called 9/12. As CIA Deputy Director Richard Armstrong leads a global hunt for the 9/12 perpetrators, the US president attempts to limit the search to terrorist organizations and individuals, while excluding nation states that helped plan, finance, and support the terrorist attacks. Richard leads his multinational Operation Archangel team in a global search to identify, locate, and capture key 9/12 planners, financiers, and executors. As the search intensifies, Richard, supported by his US senator wife, her congressional colleagues, and allied heads of state, goes head-to-head with the president. As the 9/12 perpetrator chase unfolds, a new Islamic initiative called the Grand Plan, a grandiose plan to establish a Global Islamic Caliphate, moves forward. As the Grand Plan team concludes a peaceful arrangement to rejoin the community of nations, the team continues to implement the Grand Plan as the story rushes to an explosively chilling conclusion.
