Duecento anni dopo, il segreto in esso contenuto potrebbe diventare l’arma che metterà in ginocchio l’intera Europa.

It is 1906, and in New York City, the Italian crime group known as the Black Hand is on a spree: kidnapping, extortion, arson. Detective Isaac Bell of the Van Dorn Agency is hired to form a special Black Hand Squad, but the gangsters appear to be everywhere so much so that Bell begins to wonder if there are imitators, criminals using the name for the terror effect. And then the murders begin, each one of a man more powerful than the last, and as Bell discovers, to his dismay, the ultimate target may be the most powerful man of all.

Il detective Isaac Bell insegue un assassino attraverso i campi petroliferi del paese in questa avventura della serie storica bestseller.

Poi, il tiratore provoca un'esplosione terribile che incendia la raffineria indipendente della vittima. Bell convoca i suoi migliori detective per dare la caccia al misterioso killer. Ma gli omicidi—sparatorie, avvelenamenti, incidenti simulati—sono solo all'inizio mentre Bell insegue il suo avversario criminale fantasma dalle regioni affette dalla "febbre del petrolio" del Kansas e del Texas a Washington, D.C., fino all'enclave dei magnati di New York, ai campi petroliferi di Baku, in Russia, devastati dalla guerra, e di nuovo in America per un confronto finale e disperato. E questo sarà il più esplosivo di tutti.
