Nick Grocchi, who has been sentenced to prison in Turkmenistan for a crime he did not commit, wakes up in a hospital in the U.S. where he's about to be subjected to an ultra-experimental genetic protocol in attempt to save his life.
Yet, if the treatment cures him, not only does he face being sent back to Turkmenistan to finish his prison sentence, and a powerful U.S. political figure has taken steps to assure that Nick does not uncover the truth about who framed him and why.
The Expendable Man is a fast-paced political thriller that will keep you up past your bedtime.
