In Washington D.C., in the spring of 1993, it is the dawn of a new polical era--but six thousand miles away, in the impoverished streets of Baghdad, there is a growing disillusionment with the unelected president. Sensing the mood of the people, Saddam Hussein moves boldly to settle scores with the United States.
Using $100 million as bait, Saddam gathers into his web three key players; a powerful American Mafia boss; the world's greatest forger; and, most crucially, a special assistant to the President of tthe United States, Bill Clinton.
Saddam's goal is to embarrass the U.S. by stealing part of it's history--then destrying that symbol in front of the world's media. With the help of a sophisticated criminal underworld that exhibits Wsiss-watch timing, and a skilled actor who is transformed through plastic surgery into a stand-in for Bill Clinton, he sets about his brilliant schede.
As the countdown begins to July 4, 1993--potentially, the most humiliating day in U.S. history--two lovers, abeautiful Mossad agent and a dashing American professor who advises the CIA, turn out to be a far more formidable weapon that any Patriot missile.

Spring, 1994, Washington D.C.-While the Clinton Administration grapples with its domestic policies, a sinister plot, is being masterminded six thousand miles away in Baghdad. By using $100 million as bait and spinning a deadly web of corruption, forgery, and terror, Saddam Hussien seeks to embarass the U.S. with the ultimate revenge:to steal a treasured historical document and then destroy it before the world's media-on July 4,1994.
As the countdown to Independence Day begins, two agents stand in the way of his nearly flawless plan: Scott Bradley, a rising star in the CIA who is desperate to prove his patriotism, and Hannah Kopec, the stunning Mossad operative who has already lost so much that she fears nothing and trusts no one. Their unrelenting quest to prevent what would undoubtedly be the most humiliating day in U.S. history takes them across four continents and climaxas in a dramatic, triple-twist ending.
Great story of deception.
