In today's world of political and universal corruption, where powers nefarious and often official are working to change the very physical and mental nature of children. Illegal wars are being created for the financial enhancement of the usual few, and millions are dying as a result. And Trillions are being stolen by others generally off states and their innocent people. Someone has finally reached the point at which he or she takes matters into his hands, and has assassinated a highly disreputable American Senator.

The killer has published a confession, an explanation of why he murdered this man, and he elicits other illuminated people all over the globe to do as he has done and murder their local evil monger. The success of his request is enormous and killings of people with shady reputations start to happen everywhere. The idea is to commit a single act and then disappear, leaving it to the authorities to search fruitlessly for what they call clean skins.

International pressure for the discovery and arrest of the first killer is enormous, as it is believed that with his arrest the balloon will burst and the murders will stop. Heading the task force are top investigators from the Spanish National Police and the Guardia Civil, the para-military police. This is their story, the story of Chief Inspector Juan Betardo Solis and Captain Jose Garcia's investigation, a story which unravels in the Costa Del Sol, Morocco, Israel, Palestine, and Jordan, and the tale of their many suspects.
