Joe Scott and Mitch Logan work for the Times Gazette out of New York City specializing in Mid-East stories. While in Afghanistan investigating the Husam al Din, an Islamic militant extremist group and their leader, Imam Fawzi; Joe and Mitch narrowly escape with their lives from the Imam and in the process accidentally discover a cave. Within the cave, they would find bits and pieces of a 30 year old plan that could destroy democracy in the United States. Due to their expertise, Jeremy, their editor, sends Joe and Mitch to investigate two rising Muslim political figures; Amjad Safwah in New York and Omar Mazin in Rhode Island. During the investigation of the two politicians, the story weaves its way through Africa, the Mid-East, Europe, and ultimately Washington, D.C. Between terrorist's attacks and the information they have gathered, will Joe and Mitch be able to piece together the plot of the past with the realm of deceit in the present? What will this mean for America?
