Thriller | Historical
New Year’s Eve, 1945. The assassin steps out of the
Atlantic Ocean in the middle of a raging nor’easter. Cool
and efficient, she’s a weapon of war superbly trained in
the ancient arts of subterfuge and murder. And even though
she’s outnumbered, she’s got one major advantage: No one
knows she’s coming.
Professor Mikhal Lammeck’s
specialty is the history and weaponry of assassins. But
even Lammeck is caught off guard when the Secret Service
urgently requests his help: A gruesome double murder and
suicide in Massachusetts has set off alarm bells. It’s
only a hunch, but all too soon Lammeck suspects the
unthinkable.
In the waning days of the war, someone
wants one last shot to alter history. An assassin is
headed to Washington, D.C., to kill the most important
soldier of them all: the U.S. commander in chief. As
Lammeck and a killer at the top of her profession circle
the streets of the capital in the hunt for FDR, one of
them will attempt to kill the world’s most powerful man;
the other, to save him. And between them, for an instant,
history will hang in the balance. . . .
