About This Book

A fast and furious, Machiavellian plot that once you begin reading, you can't put it down.-Webb Sawyer, author of Blue Heron Marsh"Loved it a thrilling read from cover to cover"-Elrod Stanton, author of Hunting GroundHenry Ellis becomes embroiled in an international incident when a chartered Iberian Air jet loaded with American high school students, including his twin son and daughter, is hijacked.Beneath the fade of a simple hijacking by Palestinian terrorists there is a much deeper plot, one that involves the overt Basque separatist group known as ETA, a covert Catalan separatist cabal led by a clique of old men who are holdovers from the Spanish Civil War, and, hidden even deeper in the confused trail of deception, an ex-CIA agent driven by an obsession for revenge.While Henry acts to save his children from their fate at the hands of the hijackers, the twins, Jennie and Theo, are drawn into a contest of wills with the Palestinian terrorists. In a bizarre turn of events, Henry Ellis strikes an unholy bargain with the infamous international terrorist and assassin, El S'Khah.
