very wealthy.
Now fifteen years later, Dexter's future is in jeopardy after

threating to expose the businessman. Dexter will do anything to
hide his secret. At the same time, Pike and Jennifer must
discover those stolen documents before the public finds out, and

Fifteen years ago, a desperate defense contractor used a
shell company to provide a bribe to a wealthy Saudi
businessman in order to win a contract in the Kingdom. Now
a powerful player in the defense industry, the illicit
deeds revealed in the Panama Papers could prove his
undoing.
Panicked, he sets in motion a plan to stop the next leak,
but he is not the only one worried about spilled secrets.
The data theft has left the Taskforce potentially
vulnerable, so operators Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill
are ordered to interdict the next leak as well, in order
to control the damage.
Unbeknownst to either group, the Saudi has been using the
shell company to fund terrorists all over the world, and
he has a spectacular attack planned, coinciding with the
fifteenth anniversary of 9/11. The information Pike and
Jennifer uncover will put them on the trail of the
imminent threat, but it’s one that they might be unable to
stop.
Called Ring of Fire, it will cause unimaginable
destruction across the United States, and the ensuing
chaos and terror will distract the Taskforce from a truth
no one sees: Ring of Fire was only the beginning, and the
danger is far from over.
