A deadly plague strikes America's cities. Hospital ERs
are jammed, chaos reigns in the streets, people are
dropping like flies. Someone has taken the war on drugs
into their own hands and poisoned the narcotics supply.
And the most chilling of all: the majority of Americans
approve.
Summoned back to Washington by the director who exiled
him, maverick FBI agent Mark Beamon is given the thankless
task of discovering who's behind the full-page ads that
have suddenly appeared in newspapers across the country,
giving addicts a simple choice: Quit or die.
Teamed with a female field agent as icily analytical as he
is intuitive, Beamon begins a desperate manhunt for the
only mass murderer in history ever to win popular support.
The race is on against the drug cartels, the Cosa Nostra,
and the random violence on the streets as the poisoned
drugs take their grim toll.
Agent Laura Vilechi wants to spread the net wide, across
three continents, but Beamon's gut tells him to look
closer to home. There is something eerily familiar about
his ruthless adversary, reminding him of the coldest
killer he ever encountered—not a criminal but a colleague
in an interagency undercover operation. Could it be that
this invisible enemy is the U.S. government itself?
