About the Book

A freighter goes down off the coast of Capetown; a Paris nightclub is engulfed in flames; a cement plant explodes on the outskirts of Caracas, all seemingly random, all deadly. Columbia Professor David Hamilton is living the American nightmare. With a career he hates, an ex-wife he still loves and a drinking problem he denies, he has no idea how lucky he is. Beginning with a late-night phone call from Brussels, Hamilton embarks on an odyssey into the darker regions of European power, money and betrayal, a journey that will force him to confront an evil he can neither comprehend nor control. As the body count escalates, one horrific murder will make it personal for Hamilton, and he will have no choice but to race the clock and forge alliances with characters as complex and lethal as the landscapes they inhabit.
