520 1 $a"It is several years in the future, and New York has again been targeted by Islamic terrorists. An Al Qaeda sleeper cell has carried out a series of deadly attacks against office towers, subway tunnels, and a National Guard armory. The casualty count is high. Tensions are heightened further when intelligence agencies learn that plans have been set in motion for much more devastating attacks - dirty bombs in lower Manhattan and New York's ports and docks. The plot is complicated by reports that Al Qaeda has joined forces with an IRA splinter group." "Sean Cross, a Republican Congressman from New York, works with NYPD and FBI antiterrorism units in a desperate attempt to head off these attacks. The story moves back and forth from New York to Dublin, Jakarta, Rotterdam, and Washington, D.C. Real figures such as George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, and Rudy Giuliani appear throughout the book as the story intertwines the fiction of tomorrow with the horrible memory of September 11."--BOOK JACKET.
