Gideon Davis

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.

From the executive producer of 24 and co-creator of Homeland, this exciting follow-up to Gideon's War involves a harrowing attempt to stop a homegrown terrorist plot to destroy the U.S. government. THE RIVETING SEQUEL TO GIDEON 'S WAR. International peacemaker Gideon Davis burst onto the literary scene in a blockbuster debut novel from Howard Gordon, the executive producer of 24. Now, the action and suspense intensify in his harrowing new thriller.

His ex-girlfriend, FBI agent Nancy Clement, believes Gideon's suspicions are valid, but no one will trust his source: a meth-head informant affiliated with a white supremacist group. When the informant is murdered, Gideon enlists his brother, Tillman-newly sprung from prison-as an undercover operative to infiltrate the real conspirators. With only Nancy's support, Gideon and Tillman go rogue to stop a powerful titan's audacious plan as the seconds tick closer to mass destruction.
