Beschreibung

Four airplanes are blown out of the sky-hundreds of civilians are dead, and the world is gripped by fear. As young American reporter Marie Peterssen investigates the attacks, she meets Julian Granot, a mysterious Israeli operative who offers her an enticing lead - one that points them to maverick FBI agent Morgan Ensley and the ravages of war-torn Iraq. Soon, Marie, Julian, and Morgan discover a connection between the crashes and a devastating plot to detonate a nuclear bomb in a New York City port - and time is running out. As Marie races to understand a sophisticated terror network, she stumbles upon a shocking revelation: She may have a deep personal connection to the Islamic mastermind behind the attacks. Now, she will stop at nothing to uncover the truth. But it could cost Marie and her team the mission and their lives.
