About this book

"[A] very detailed and well-plotted piece of work with plenty of twists and turns. . . It's a terrific piece of work" -MICHAEL ROWLEY Editor of The Martian Kidnapping. Human experiments. A chance to repay the debt of a lifetime. War is coming. Dr. Arthur Beeman is a brilliant genetic engineer who is obsessed with the cosmic secrets of life and death. He's developed the deadliest biological weapon in the US arsenal. His obsession drives him to kidnap two women for human experiments-not knowing he's under surveillance by North Korean agents who blackmail him to obtain his weapon. North Korea is planning to start a war. Mark Jensen, father of one of the kidnapped women, is a former prosecutor. He senses that the investigation to find his daughter is being deliberately stalled, so he turns to an aging former CIA officer, Albert Brecht, for help. Brecht is the founder of an elite private intelligence firm, and has waited for decades to repay a debt he owes to the Jensen family. He leads a hand-picked team on a mission to find the missing women, and in the process discovers North Korea's invasion plans. The clock is counting down to zero. The odds are terrible. Can Brecht's team prevent cataclysmic loss of life? "Impressive ... one of the best ... [a] real page turner. I felt compelled to get to the end just to see what happens, and that's rarer than you might think in this line of work." -SCRIBENDI
