When the U.S. Vice President dies unexpectedly during a
hunting trip in the Everglades, the President selects his
friend, former Florida governor Harry Swyteck, to fill the
vacant position. Called to Washington to serve as his
father's legal advisor, Jack Swyteck has mixed feelings
about working so closely with the parent he's been at odds
with in the past. Jack's duty, however, as a son and as an
American, takes top priority.
But the vipers are restless in the D.C. snake pit. A
fifty-year-old secret is unraveling and a cover-up at the
highest levels of government threatens to drag both Swytecks
under. When hostages are taken, Jack must get to the root of
the evil and quickly—because suddenly no one is safe, and
the presidency itself hangs in the balance.
