John Corey works on a New York team that fights against terrorism. The team has an important new case when a passenger jet arrives at the airport on autopilot with everyone on board dead. But one passenger is not among the dead, Asad Khalil, a terrorist who was being brought in to the USA by government agents. But the agents are among the dead and Khalil is missing.
Corey figures out that the plane load of dead passengers and crew are just the opening act in Khalil's revenge play. He's gunning for the bomber crews that wiped out his family in Libya. And he is also aiming for the man that authorized the bombing, the now-retired Ronald Reagan.
This was a pretty good story. However, the ending was disappointing. Spoiler alert: the terrorist gets away. For some reason, the author lets the man responsible for over three hundred deaths escape. Maybe it's a cliffhanger to lure the reader on to the next book in the series.
