Jeffry Weiss
- The
- remnants
- of
- ISIS
- have
- been
- planning
- a
- series
- of
- great
- strikes
- against
- the
- infidels.
- Working
- with
- limited
- resources,
- men
- and
- money,
- they
- are
- devising
- multiple
- operations
- that,
- if
- successful,
- may
- kill
- millions,
- possibly
- hundreds
- of
- millions
- of
- people
- guilty
- of
- nothing
- more
- that
- worshiping
- a
- different
- god.President
- James
- P.
- Hardessy
- enlists
- the
- help
- of
- protagonist
- Paul
- Decker
- to
- track
- down
- the
- Marburg
- virus
- that
- has
- been
- transported
- to
- Kathmandu,
- Nepal.The
- president
- has
- teamed
- Paul
- up
- with
- a
- biologist
- who
- knows
- how
- to
- handle
- the
- Marburg
- and
- is
- also
- an
- experienced
- climb.
- But
- unknown
- to
- Paul
- and
- the
- president,
- she
- is,
- in
- fact,
- a
- member
- of
- the
- extreme
- Jihadist
- group,
- The
- Army
- of
- Justice.An
- international
- expedition
- is
- set
- to
- climb
- Mt.
- Everest.
- Ambassadors
- from
- six
- nations
- are
- using
- the
- expedition
- to
- develop
- a
- working
- relationship
- between
- countries
- that
- had
- been
- adversaries
- and
- who
- will,
- after
- the
- camaraderie
- and
- success
- they
- have
- on
- the
- mountain,
- take
- home
- that
- confidence
- and
- mutual
- respect
- to
- hammer
- out
- a
- nuclear
- disarmament
- agreement.The
- terrorists
- will
- attack
- the
- infidels
- on
- four
- fronts
- at
- once:
- the
- releasing
- of
- small
- pox
- in
- America,
- Marburg
- in
- the
- Sahel,
- a
- suicide
- bomber
- in
- Algiers,
- an
- attack
- on
- opening
- night
- at
- the
- World
- Soccer
- Cup
- by
- a
- car
- loaded
- with
- explosives
- and
- the
- Everest
- expedition
- in
- Nepal.The
- terrorists
- plan
- is
- both
- intricate
- and
- subtle.
- And
- Paul
- must
- not
- only
- climb
- with
- the
- ambassadors
- to
- ensure
- their
- safety,
- but
- learn
- of
- the
- method
- by
- which
- the
- terrorists
- intend
- to
- disperse
- the
- Marburg
- before
- they
- get
- a
- chance
- to
- complete
- their
- plan.The
- American
- government
- is
- stretched
- thin
- attempting
- to
- find
- and
- circumvent
- the
- plots,
- all
- while
- a
- clock
- is
- ticking
- down
- to zero.
