Book description
A good job, a decent flat in Los Angeles, a quiet life - Nick Horrigan
has finally put his traumatic past behind him. Or so it seems, until a
SWAT team smashes into his place in the middle of the night. Still in
pajamas, he's dragged outside to a waiting helicopter. He's told that a
terrorist has seized control of a nuclear power plant and is threatening
to blow it up…unless he can talk to Nick. Flown into a deadly intrigue,
Nick is charged with a dangerous secret, one that will take him from the
dark alleys of the city to behind the scenes of a Presidential race. As
he rockets toward the truth, peeling back layer after layer of lies and
deception, only one thing is certain: The long-buried secret, tied to
the traumas of his own past, threatens his life at every turn. Gregg
Hurwitz has written screenplays for film and TV, and reinvented a comic
character for Marvel. In the name of research he has swum with sharks
and sneaked onto demolition ranges. He now lives in LA where he is a
keen soccer player.
