A released felon is coerced by the CIA to find and expose an illegal drug and bio-terrorist facility in the remote Hindu Kush in turn for the U. S. Government wiping clean his police record. National players in the drugs and a weaponized virus complicate this thriller toward a coalescence of diabolical interests and a show down with an attempted murder on the U. S. President. Deception and violence come together and a Buddhist solace makes a strange terminus.
