Book Summary

Fifteen years ago, a desperate defense contractor used a shell company to provide a bribe to a wealthy Saudi businessman in order to win a contract in the Kingdom. Now a powerful player in the defense industry, the illicit deeds revealed in the Panama Papers could prove his undoing.

Panicked, he sets in motion a plan to stop the next leak, but he is not the only one worried about spilled secrets. The data theft has left the Taskforce potentially vulnerable, so operators Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill are ordered to interdict the next leak as well, in order to control the damage.

Unbeknownst to either group, the Saudi has been using the shell company to fund terrorists all over the world, and he has a spectacular attack planned, coinciding with the fifteenth anniversary of 9/11. The information Pike and Jennifer uncover will put them on the trail of the imminent threat, but it’s one that they might be unable to stop.

Called Ring of Fire, it will cause unimaginable destruction across the United States, and the ensuing chaos and terror will distract the Taskforce from a truth no one sees: Ring of Fire was only the beginning, and the danger is far from over.
