Francis Cranford just discovered he has a twin-identical in appearance but completely different in circumstance. Kenneth Redman is a US Air Force General. Francis is a nobody. Kenneth is worth $525 million dollars and owns a cattle ranch and orange farm. He owes a huge debt to the Irish Mafia for these ventures. But for an accident of timing, Francis would have had it all. Instead, the Irish mob plans to kill Kenneth, replace him with Francis, and plunder the general's vast resources. Francis knows if they succeed, he will be as dead as his twin, therefore he foresees a much different outcome. Francis' life will clash briefly, but significantly with other players in the complex, mentally-challenging world of criminal game-playing, corruption, and terrorism. Belfast mob bosses, jihadists, corrupt news broadcasters and damsels in distress all jockey for position, sometimes forming alliances and always betraying each other, as world-wide domination continually shifts hands. Everyone involved wants power and treasure. Few will survive to claim it, both physically and psychologically.
