How far would you go to catch a killer?
Captain Jack Dana
a Marine brought home after being
severely wounded in combat channels his experiences into writing. His Uncle Harry, a partner in a leading New
York law firm and closest thing Jack now has to a father gives Jack the space
to write and the time to heal, he also helps him find a publisher. Jack is
firmly in his debt and with two bestsellers under his belt, travels to Brazil
to get to work on a third. Jack returns to terrible news, days after he left
for Brazil, Harry hanged himself at his Sag Habour home.
Harry's boss tells Jack
that Uncle Harry was losing his mind and had to be retired to save his and the
firm's reputation. Unable to swallow that line Jack starts to dig. Harry's
remains now fit into an urn but he was smart enough to leave a trail for Jack
to follow. With the help of Kerry Black, Harry's close associate and Scott
Prentice, Jack's former college buddy turned CIA spook he traces Harry's death
to one client in particular; a right wing blowhard who is about to take his
network of companies public, while secretly continuing to fund terrorist
organisations overseas. Before Jack can take him down he'll have to deal with a
Slav hitman, vines of corruption that lead to the house and the senate and
media slurs on his uncle's reputation. Jack uses those same media to set a trap
for Harry’s killer, with himself as the bait.
