Former MI6 agent Alex Jordan hunts his old partner's murderer and discovers a plan to assassinate the North Korean president and replace the demigod with a brutal, cash-hungry Korean general. The plot is instigated by rogue Secret Service chief Paul Grady and its success will net the ambitious man carte blanche intelligence rights to all of Asia and the Pacific Rim. He plans to market that intelligence to the highest bidder, including terrorists, while the Korean general consolidates his international drug empire. As Jordan is pushed to the edge of his endurance, he's forced to test the loyalty of his close friends and colleagues to the limit - for a few it will inevitably cost them everything.
