This book is divided into three parts. Part 1, is about Evan Kendrick saving some 260 Americans held hostage in the U.S. Enbassy in Masquat. Part 2 is about Evan Kendrick, one year later, being manipulated by a powerful group of 4 into several high positions on powerful committees within the government, which lead to his identity about his actions in Masquat. Two Arab teams of terrorists are sent to the USA to kiill him and all his friends. Part 3 is about the same 4 putting Evan Kendrick on the ticket for the presidency of the United States. Well written, well thought out, and a very fast moving story with many players. A wonderful novel.
