A sizzling thriller about the next battlefront in the war on terror from New York Times best-selling author, Kenneth R. Timmerman

Israeli intelligence picks up the departure of a mysterious cargo ship from Iran, while half-way across the world, a Muslim-American girl is found dead in suburban Maryland.

The two events appeared to be worlds apart. But they were not.

Major Danny Wilkens, the U.S. government's top Iran analyst, becomes convinced that the cargo ship is part of an Iranian plot to kill millions of Americans. But incompetent bureaucrats and a broken CIA force him to go outside the system, where he puts his career and even his marriage on the line in order to stop its relentless trajectory toward America.

FBI Special Agent Michael Brannigan is perplexed by the "honor killing" of a Muslim girl in suburban Maryland. But it's only when his investigation is shut down by G-girl Joanna Greary that he discovers a sordid underworld of steamy sex, corrupt government officials, and local Muslim leaders who have exploited America's loose immigration laws for terror.

In this fast-paced Washington novel of spies, faith, betrayal, and lust, New York Times best-selling author Kenneth R. Timmerman tells a story so chilling that it had to be kept out of the newspapers.

. Is there really a spy for the terrorists who has access to the highest reaches of the United States government, including the White House?

. Have our intelligence agencies become so bureaucratic and corrupt they can no longer act when a clear and present danger appears?

. Is Iran's master-terrorist at work today, probing our weaknesses?

. Is the American Muslim community giving shelter to deadly enemies?

Timmerman takes us from underground hide-outs in Iran to beach-side bars in the British Virgin Islands, from the port of Maracaibo to a shoot-out in Dubai. He brings us smooth Mossad operators, CIA bumblers and a Persian beauty named Aryana, who uses a computer company in California as a front for clandestine operations inside Iran.

As the Iranians get ever closer to our shores, readers are in for a surprising climax that may have many of them down on their knees.
