The Icarus Agenda

A supreme thriller from the world’s Number 1 storyteller.

In the Sultanate of Oman over 200 hostages are being held – the world helplessly watches as the Madness begins: the spirit of the Mahdi is abroad, intent on financial and political domination. To the Oman comes a quiet Congressman from Colorado: Evan Kendrick would seem an unlikely hero, but in his past there is a violence that he cannot forget – the blood of 70 men, women and children in a country which he fiercely loves. He will be the bolt that changes a nation – but which nation?

On the other side of the world, five of the very rich – and very different – meet. They are the Inheritors of Inver Brass, changers of the world. A new kind of world saviour is sought, an innocent messiah – and Kendrick is to be that unwitting victim.
