What happens if both the president and vice-president-elect die before taking the oath of office? The answer leads to total political chaos. After being shot down over Siberia, ex-Justice Department agent Cotton Malone finds himself in a survival fight against Aleksandr Zorin, a man whose deep-seated animosity toward the United States stems from his loyalty to the former Soviet Union. Before escaping, Malone discovers Zorin and another ex-KGB officer, a sleeper agent still active in the West, are heading to Washington D.C. with Inauguration Day just hours away. A flaw in the Constitution and a problematic presidential succession act create the perfect storm for disaster, which Zorin plans to exploit. Armed with a weapon from the Cold War, believed to be a myth, he prepares to launch an attack, aided by a shocking secret from the archives of America’s oldest fraternal organization—the Society of Cincinnati. This group once provided military strategy to presidents, including plans for invading Canada. In a high-stakes race that begins in the frozen landscapes of Russia and culminates at the White House, Malone must confront not only Zorin but also a crippling fear that threatens everything he holds dear.
