NY Times bestselling author Nelson DeMille wrote this eagerly awaited follow-up to The Lion's Game. John Corey, special agent for the Anti-Terrorist Task Force, is back. And, unfortunately for Corey, so is Asad Khalil, the notorious Libyan terrorist otherwise known as "The Lion." Last we heard from him, Khalil had claimed to be defecting to the US only to unleash the most horrific reign of terrorism ever to occur on American soil. Khalil disappeared without a trace. Now, years later, Khalil has returned to America to make good on his threats and take care of unfinished business.
