On a quiet park bench in Manhattan, spymaster Jake Janos Illin reveals a chilling secret to Jake Grafton: a rogue Russian general has sold four nuclear warheads to the radical Islamic group, the Sword of Islam. Their plan is to detonate these warheads in America, igniting a holy war between Western civilization and the Muslim world. After relaying Illin's message to his superiors, Grafton is tasked by the president with assembling a secret team to locate the warheads before a nuclear holocaust devastates the nation. As he navigates the treacherous landscape of power politics, techno-billionaires, and traitors, Grafton realizes that the terrorists may not only be from the Middle East; some could be hiding in plain sight, posing as patriots and potentially influencing the president. With the fate of Western civilization hanging in the balance, Grafton enlists the help of Toad Tarkington and CIA burglar Tommy Carmellini, even raiding prisons to gather his team as the countdown to disaster ticks away. Filled with rich, vivid characters and relentless action, the narrative poses a profound question: how far should civilization go to defend itself against its enemies?
