On a rainy June morning, tens of thousands of people
crowd into Duluth for the city's biggest annual event:
the Duluth Marathon. Exhausted runners push to reach the
finish line and spectators line the streets to cheer them
on. Then, in a terrifying echo of the Boston bombing,
there is an explosion along the race course, leaving many
people dead and injured.
Within minutes, Jonathan Stride, Serena Dial, and Maggie
Bei are at work with the FBI to find the terrorists
behind the tragedy. As social media feeds a flood of
rumors and misinformation, one spectator remembers being
jostled by a young man with a backpack not far from the
bomb site. He spots a Muslim man in a tourist's photo of
the event and is convinced that this was the man who
bumped into him in the crowd--but now the man's backpack
is missing.
When he tweets the photo to the public, the young man,
Khan Rashid, becomes the most wanted man in the city. And
the manhunt is on.
But are the answers behind the Duluth bombing more
complex than anyone realizes? And can Stride, Serena, and
Maggie find the truth before more innocent people are
killed?
