"The storytelling is great. Thriller fans will enjoy this one." --Kirkus Reviews
Damon Traynor leaves a glittering career on Wall Street to set up his own private equity business. When it is the winning bidder in the multi-billion dollar auction for a government-owned defense company, his firm's future success looks certain.
But soon after the deal closes, Damon makes an alarming discovery--something that makes the recent acquisition worthless. Then he learns he was duped by the financially-strapped federal administration and that there are many others in the same position. Facing financial ruin, he investigates the US treasury officials behind the transaction.
What Damon uncovers is a terrifying web of organized crime--extending all the way to the White House itself--involving blackmail and assassination on an industrial scale. When those around him begin to die, Damon finds himself locked in a deadly battle with the leader of the free world.
