President Steve Wade believes his latest affair with a beautiful Lebanese woman, Lucia Benoni, is a secret. When Lucia is murdered in mysterious circumstances, FBI Agent Kelly Smith is called in to investigate and uncovers links between Lucia, a hostile foreign power, a group of vicious white supremacists and a shadowy high-placed Washington figure known only as `Fox`. As Wade continues to deny the affair, the press gets on the trail. Because of the national security implications, there are demands in Congress for Wade`s impeachment but if this were to happen, the law provides that Vice President Ellen Trevathan should become President. `Fox` and his associates have other plans, which do not include allowing the lawful succession to take place. As time runs out Kelly may hold the key to preventing a coup d`etat and a possible civil war.ISBN-9781842435984
