Produktbeschreibung

2nd in the series. The war on terror was now over a decade old with nor further attacks on America, but with little progress in resolving the growing suicide bombings. President Matthews, in office for two years, is invited by the President of France to attend D-Day ceremonies at Omaha Beach in Normandy. A French terrorist group has resolved to assassinate the US president. Against the advice of his administration, including Vice President McDonald, he is adamant about honoring the request.
As the plans progress, rumors of the planned assassination is circulated but cannot be confirmed. Mac (Vice President) and Connors (FBI Director)fly to Europe to see if there is credence to the rumors. They break away from their secret service guards and end up in a seedy part of Paris, hiring the man who can lead them to critical informants. They have only five weeks before Matthews arrives in Paris for his meeting, and they must elude their secret service protectors as well as finding a way to remove the assassination threat from their president. The secret service is frantic in their search, but cannot reveal to the world that the vice president and the FBI director are missing. However, the CIA is helping Connors and the vice president stay hidden while they search for answers.
The book brings back the team from Grayfield in a fast paced adventure novel covering only a six-week period of time from planning to execution, and a surprise ending with a sprinkle of romance.
