In this eagerly awaited follow-up to The Lion's Game, John Corey,
former NYPD Homicide detective and special agent for the Anti-Terrorist
Task Force, is back. And, unfortunately for Corey, so is Asad Khalil,
the notorious Libyan terrorist otherwise known as "The Lion." Last we
heard from him, Khali had claimed to be defecting to the US only to
unleash the most horrific reign of terrorism ever to occur on American
soil. While Corey and his partner, FBI agent Kate Mayfield, chased him
across the country, Khalil methodically eliminated his victims one by
one and then disappeared without a trace.
Now, years later, Khalil has returned to America to make good on his
threats and take care of unfinished business. "The Lion" is a killing
machine once again loose in America with a mission of revenge, and John
Corey will stop at nothing to achieve his own goal -- to find and kill
Khahil.
