Retired Florida Senator John Billington is deliberatly killed by
a hit and run driver. He had been outspoken about his belief that
Saudi Arabia (the Kingdom) was involved in 9/11 and was stockpiling
nuclear weapons. He also believed that our government was involved
in a conspiracy to cover up the Saudi involvement.
Billington left behind his papers concerning his;sources and information
and his plans to circumvent a possible disaster. The papers were
to be given to Tony Ramos, an investigative analyst in the State
Department. He believed that Ramos would carry on for him.
Ramos is joined by Billington's daughter, Laura, in an effort to
find her father's killer and to discover and thwart the conspiracy
that could unleash a nuclear disaster. This search is fraught with
deceit, betrayal and personal danger. They must travel to Saudi
Arabia, India and Afghanistan in their efforts to prevent a world-wide
disaster.
Graham's background in the Senate and Intelligence committee bring
a feeling of authenticity to this story. One must wonder what is
true based on his insider knowledge and what is the product of a
writer's imagination. This is a fast moving page turner with ongoing
suspense. The characters are well developed and believable. This
is a book that will surely make the reader question the actions
and policies of his government.
