Jane Hawk discovers the secret journal of Cora Gundersun, a mild-mannered schoolteacher who killed herself and others in an act of sudden violence. The journal contains disturbing words that echoed in Cora's mind before her death. Jane recognizes the pattern from her husband's suicide and dozens of other mysterious deaths involving good people who suddenly turned violent. She traces these deaths to a secret cabal using advanced technology to control minds and seize power in America. Now a rogue FBI agent and the nation's most wanted fugitive, Jane hunts the conspiracy members who believe themselves untouchable. She fights not only for justice for her dead husband but also to protect her five-year-old son, whom she has hidden away from danger. The powerful conspirators face a relentless predator who will stop at nothing to destroy their plans.
