Nine cities. Nine murders. One conspiracy that will change the world.

On the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a billionaire tech mogul is assassinated with a single shot. The killing is audacious, calculated-and only the beginning.

Crime reporter Jane Cole is clawing her way back after her husband's tragic death. Suspended NYPD cop Robert Warren has nothing left-except his integrity and a slim chance to clear his name. Both see the case as their way out of the shadows-but neither is prepared for what comes next.

When a second high-profile murder rocks Washington, D.C., Cole and Warren are thrust into a chilling pattern: Nine cities. Nine victims. And a conspiracy that ties the world's elite to a chilling plan, threatening millions of lives.

From New York's unforgiving streets to Paris's glittering skyline, from Miami's sunlit sprawl to Tokyo's neon labyrinth, Cole and Warren chase a conspiracy with limitless reach. As the body count rises, so do the risks. And each revelation shatters what they thought they knew, drawing them closer to a truth-and a danger-they may not survive.
