New Year’s Eve, 1945. The assassin steps out of the Atlantic Ocean in the middle of a raging nor’easter. Cool and efficient, she’s a weapon of war superbly trained in the ancient arts of subterfuge and murder. And although she’s outnumbered, she’s got one major advantage: No one knows she’s coming.
Professor Mikhal Lammeck’s specialty is the history and weaponry of assassins. But even Lammeck is caught off guard when the trick Service urgently requests his help: A gruesome double murder and suicide in Massachusetts has tripped alarm bells. It’s only a hunch, but all too soon Lammeck suspects the unthinkable.
In the waning days of the war, someone wants one last shot to improve history. An assassin is headed to Washington, D.C., to kill the main soldier of these all: the U.S. commander in chief. As Lammeck and a killer near the top of her profession circle the streets of the administrative centre in the search for FDR, one of these will attempt to kill the world’s most powerful man; the other, to save him. And between them, for an instant, history will hang in the balance. . . .
