Terry Bannister, tough, mean and not too fussed about the law, is not happy. Firstly, he barely survived a firefight in Sydney with his enemy Jack Martin the rescue by Jack and his buddies of Jack's daughter from Terry's clutches. And secondly, he is out of a job after the collapse of the shady bank he was working for.

But these setbacks won't stop Terry. Greener pastures await him, this time with the big boys in the Americas. And play he does, although in the back of his mind he still wants to settle the score with Jack even as his bank balance soars.

And what of Jack? Well, he and his family are safely ensconced in Europe with new names and a truck load of money. Safely? Not really. A ruthless CIA agent wants Jack to do his bidding and threatens to tell Terry where he is if he doesn't. But Jack, no slouch himself, has friends who are not afraid to lend a hand when things get nasty.

As the action swings from one side of the Atlantic to the other, Terry and Jack continue their battle amid international terrorist plots, cocaine smuggling, arms dealing and money laundering on a grand scale.

As circumstances bring them spiralling together, Terry and Jack engage in one last titanic struggle that will result in death, destruction and, ultimately, one survivor. Who will it be?
