From the executive producer of 24, a debut thriller not to be missed! Gideon Davis has just one day to bring his rogue brother to justice-before a vast global conspiracy turns deadly. Gideon Davis, whose behind-the-scenes negotiating skills have earned him the roll of Peacemaker in conflicts around the globe, knows more about hush-hush discussions in Capitol corridors than he does about hand-to-hand combat. But his more practical, tactical skills come into play when he's called on by family friend and government bigwig Earl Parker to chaperone a rogue agent from the Southeast Asia to D.C. The agent, Tillman Davis has promised to turn himself in-but only to his brother Gideon. When the plan for Tillman's surrender goes awry, Gideon must evade hostile locals to make his way to The Obelisk-the multi-million-dollar, state-of-the-art oil rig that has been seized by terrorists. Both Tillman-who doesn't seem to have surrender in mind-and Earl Parker are aboard the ill-fated rig; Tillman working undercover and Parker as a hostage. As tensions rise, Gideon launches an unlikely one-man rescue.
