Thriller
In Paris, a priest is murdered, his mutilated body dumped
into the Seine. He has taken a secret with him to his death
-- a secret that is revealed during the autopsy, reawakening
memories of Depression-era politics and a seventy-year-old
heist. Jennifer Browne, an ambitious FBI agent, is assigned to the
case. For her, this is a final opportunity to kick-start a
career that stalled three years ago, after a fatal error in
judgment. She is determined that this time there will be no
mistakes. Her investigation soon comes across a daring robbery at Fort
Knox. The immediate suspect is Tom Kirk, a brilliant young
art thief and a man whose very existence threatens to bring
down the newly elected president. Caught between his desire to get out of the game and his
partner's insistence that he complete one last job for the
criminal mastermind Cassius, Tom faces a race against time
to clear his name -- a race that takes him from London to
Paris, and Amsterdam to Istanbul, in a search for the real
thieves and the legendary Double Eagle.
