In this tense political and scientific international thriller, duplicity, deception and doublecrosses abound as Nathan Brooks - a forensic investigator working an odd case in Guatemala - stumbles upon a variety of bewildering clues that seem to indicate that some sort of attack on a large American city is imminent.

As Brooks soon learns, Moroccan militants have planned a novel false flag operation to provoke an extreme American response for regime-changing blowback against their king - a man they despise for his obscenely extravagant lifestyle in one of the world's poorest countries.

A multinational corporation with covert ties to the CIA aiding the militants has a much different agenda - it plans to steal the king's massive fortune once he's overthrown.

Brooks and his former girlfriend - a troubled ATF agent with a knack for finding danger - attempt to make sense of the disparate clues and deduce the Moroccan militants' target before they can detonate an ingenius bomb.
