This book is a thriller in the same vein as; Lee Childs, David Baldacci and Michael Connelly. The plot line relates to the Shia Crescent of Power. Iran wants to build an oil pipeline through Iraq and Syria for access to the Mediterranean. This would allow Iran to ultimately close off the Gulf to Kuwait and the UAE oil shipments, driving prices through the roof and damaging Saudi Arabia as an enemy. Duncan Innes is a Federal Reserve investigator who is tasked with discovering who murdered a Federal Reserve Banker and why. A Bank of England employee is also killed and Innes tries to connect the dots. A female assassin is sought by the Police in multiple countries as Innes follows up on leads. He travels from Washington to London and Frankfurt looking for motives and who is behind the killings. Things come to a head in Cape Town, South Africa when a local banker there is also murdered. The President of the United States is appraised of the Middle East Cabal and the possibility that a member of his team is involved in a cover-up engineered by Kuwait. It comes out that Israel/Hamas is only a distraction to keep the West from focusing on what is happening in Iran. Innes has multiple attempts made on his life while chasing down all leads. His activities are sanctioned by the President as he seeks who is the inside man in Washington.
