Will they make it against their deadly attackers?US First Lady, Kathryne Mannocks has had enough. She's done her very best but refuses to continue being humiliated by her husband's behaviour. And all the goddamn security is choking the life out of her. Tripping over the final straw she angrily storms out of the White House to join former college friends for a reunion at the old hotel way out in the wilds. She'll have freedom to be herself while fresh air and old friendships might help her to regain perspective. She's stubbornly refused stifling efforts to impose blanket security upon her and won't acknowledge she is now left vulnerable and minimally protected. A fanatical group of terrorists stage a murderous breakout from a nearby high security prison. Armed with guns and explosives, Dravid, an Islamic jihadist and Eamon, a veteran terrorist, lead an uneasy and temporary alliance to further their inhuman causes. They attack the hotel to ruthlessly and bloodily capture a prize that will help achieve their deadly objectives. While powerful governments find themselves held in a pitiless stand-off, there are a still a few survivors at the hotel with the strengths to pit themselves against this post-massacre mission."A fabulous read.""A taut, fast moving thriller.""A compelling story full of strong characters."A cracking thriller....the reader is propelled into a dark world of political and fundamentalist terror.
