Nobel laureate,einancier,and philanthropist Peter Novak-a billionaire committed to fostering global democracy through his Liberty Foundation-has been captured by the Caliph,a near-mythical terrorist who plan to execute him in a matter of days.
Running out of time and hope, Novak's people turn to a man with a history of defeating impossible odds: Paul Janson.For decades, Janson was a legendary covert operative and assaddin. Now he has retired,and was a legendary convert operative and assassin. Now he has retired,and nothing could lure him back-nothing except Peter Novak,who once save Janson's life.
Backed by the resources of the Liberty Foundation. Janson assembles a crack extraction team to rescue Novak. But to operation goes horribly wrong,and Janson is marked for death.
Now he is running for his life,pursued by Jessica Kincaid,an agent who,as a student of Janson's own tactics,can anticipate his every move.To survive,Janson must outrace a company that has gone beyond the control of its creators. To win,he must counter it with a conspiracy of his own. Janson only hope is to uncover the truth behind these events-a secret that has the power to foment wars,topple governments, and change the course of history.
