About the Book
When
Osama bin Laden is suspected of bombing two U.S. embassies in Africa, President
Jessup secretly gives Dutch Dantley the go-ahead for Acappella
Blue, an experiment he has not tested.
Dutch meets Trisha
Gregano, a beautiful and ambitious reporter who reminds him of his late wife.
She agrees to help Dutch with his experiment, but finds
herself attracted to Harris Churchill and is seduced by him.
Disillusioned,
disoriented, and scared for his life, Harris Churchill disappears just as Dutch
is about to conclude his test. Trisha is found dead . . . raped and full of
drugs. Harris becomes a prime suspect.
In
the psychiatric ward of a Chicago hospital, Grace Wheatley begins to unravel
Harris’s story. He sees his situation as bad luck and coincidence, but Dr. Wheatley
senses a possible setup. She calls Harris’s arresting officer and learns that
he’s a murder suspect.
When
Dutch
discovers Harris’s whereabouts, he sets in motion a complex series of events to
capture and kill him. After killing some of bin Laden’s henchmen, Dutch
forces Harris’s old boss, Langston Skinner to get involved. When the CIA taps
Dr. Wheatley’s phone, agent Clarence Washington learns that Dutch
killed Trisha and he coyly devises a trap to snare him.
