For centuries after the birth of Muhammad in 570 A.D., vast armies of Islamic crusaders, armed only with swords and fanatical determination, strove to conquer the world for Allah. Only the Crusades of the eleventh century curtailed their ambitions, but unfortunately, a modern day movement by brutal, indiscriminate terrorists like ISIS, al-Qaeda, and the Taliban, are employing sophisticated tools of war, supported, promoted, and bolstered by twenty-first century technology. When a small nuclear bomb explodes in a remote desert of the United States, and our government rules out an accident, people naturally begin to suspect terrorism. Dr. Jack Walker, the retired director of the CIA is called back into service by the Director of Homeland Security to lead a small, but unconventional group of rag-tags to find the perpetrators. After many days of investigation and speculation, an answer finally comes in the form of an ultimatum from a small, previously unknown Islamic cell which, although less vitriolic and murderous, is no less passionate and determined. The ultimatum for America is to agree to the cell's conditions or face nuclear devastation. The generations-long plan includes high-ranking individuals with a conspiracy of an unbelievable magnitude. With the help of a couple of dysfunctional computer nerds who accidentally break a highly cryptic code, and the break-all-the-rules of a small cadre of intelligence gatherers, little by little, the onion begins to peel back an elaborate plan to convert America to Islam. Only with lots of luck and die-hard dedication, does the impenetrable shield of power, money, immunity, and diplomacy slowly yield to an undeniable truth. The majority of Americans easily dismiss a nuclear threat until a nuclear bomb destroys a small middle-American city. The message is then clear: Unless American submits to the perpetrators demands, larger and larger cities well be bombed until American finally consents to Islamic rules and leadership. Panic sends millions escaping to other countries while those who are unable to leave are left to deal with a near civil war between Muslims and non-Muslims in the country. Through a mammoth amount of investigation, shocking revelations, risky political indictments, and unexpected turns of events, the cell is finally exposed and disrupted-but not totally destroyed. America's relief is only temporary; the assault only thwarted; the jihad lives on
