When Todd Belknap—a legendary field agent for Consular
Operations with a reputation as something of a cowboy— is
cut loose from the agency after an operation goes wrong,
his best friend and fellow agent is abducted in Lebanon by
a militia group with a vicious reputation. When the
government refuses to either rescue him or negotiate for
his release, Belknap decides to take matters into his own
hands.
Meanwhile, hedge fund analyst Andrea Bancroft gets a
surprising call—she is to receive an unexpected bequest of
six million dollars from a cousin she never met. With one
condition—she must agree to sit on the board of the
Bancroft family foundation, a charitable organization that
is run by the family patriarch, Paul Bancroft. Having never
been involved with, or even met, the family—her mother was
briefly married to a Bancroft and cut off all contact many
years ago—Andrea is intrigued. But the foundation, which is
dedicated to doing strategic good deeds, appears less and
less benign the more deeply involved she gets. What exactly
is their involvement with the "Genesis"—a mysterious group
working to destabilize the geopolitical balance at the risk
of millions of lives? As events escalate, Todd Belknap and
Andrea Bancroft come together and must form an uneasy
alliance if they are to uncover the truth behind "Genesis"—
before it is too late.
