The scene is set for a huge funeral in St Patrick’s Cathedral in New York. The rich and the famous from all over America – and beyond – have arrived to honour a former First Lady after her sudden, unexpected death.
Then follows an attack that was three years in the planning. Hostages are taken – the ex-President among them – ransoms demanded, a couple of hostages shot to show the kidnappers mean business.
It’s all brilliantly and chillingly co-ordinated, and Michael Bennett, the detective in charge of the case, knows it will be his biggest ever challenge.

Praise for James Patterson: 'Ticks like a time bomb - full of threat and terror
Brilliantly terrifying...so exciting I had to stay up all night to finish it
Patterson knows where our deepest fears are buried... There's no stopping his imagination.
