A bomb attack in Washington, DC, kills the US President and again pits Major Brooke Grant against the world's master terrorist, the Falcon, only this time around there's more at stake than his fatwa against her. With the financial backing of Africa's wealthiest tycoon, the Falcon has obtained a North Korean nuclear device that a jihadist called 'The Destroyer' is converting into 'dirty bombs' destined for three cities. Grant recruits Esther Cohen, a formidable Mossad agent, and Khalid Ibrahim from Saudi Arabia's General Intelligence Directorate, to help her thwart the attacks after a new president intent on shaking up the nation's capital frees her from traditional CIA restraints.
