Joseph Flynn's novel, praised as a Page-Turner of the Week, sets a new standard for suspense with its intricate plot. J. D. Cade, trained to kill without leaving a trace, thought he had left his violent past behind. However, he is now being blackmailed, with his only son as leverage, forcing him to consider taking another life. The target is Franklin Delano Rawley, the first African-American poised to become president of the United States. As J. D. infiltrates Rawley’s campaign, he grapples with the moral dilemma of killing a man he comes to respect. To save his son and Rawley, he must uncover the mastermind behind the conspiracy threatening to alter the nation's future. J. D.'s every move is under scrutiny from both his blackmailer and a suspicious Secret Service agent, while an old army acquaintance complicates matters within the campaign. Adding to the tension is J. D.'s growing attraction to Rawley’s campaign manager, which creates further conflict if he must follow through with the assassination. As the clock ticks down, J. D. faces a harrowing choice: who will survive, and who will be the next president? The explosive conclusion will leave readers guessing until the very end.
