The past and the present are intricately linked like a Gordian knot in Jack Carr’s sixth installment in the popular Terminal List series. Protagonist James Reece, a former Navy SEAL, is front and center in a maelstrom of international intrigue and deception while working feverishly to foil a devious plot organized by an international cabal first uncovered by his father decades earlier.

Reece’s father Thomas, a Vietnam vet also involved in national intelligence, was killed piecing together most of the insidious plot and posthumously left James clues as to his findings in a hidden safe deposit box. Trust no one, his father advises. The task of stopping the plot is now left to James to complete following his release from serving time in solitary confinement in a high security federal prison on a fake charge of assassinating the president of the United States.
