A Dark Perfection

Jack O'Neill, former FBI counter-terrorism interrogator, has come back to his hometown of Chicago after the death of his wife, where he becomes lead Federal Prosecutor for all major gang cases.

After the worst terrorist attack in U.S history, O'Neill is ordered to Washington to interrogate the only terrorist survivor - Aisha, the Arab girl with the face of a Siren.

O'Neill is then pulled into a brutal homicide investigation as he aids Detective Keialani Keno, a childhood friend from Hawaii teaching at the FBI Academy, as she attempts to solve a bizarre series of murders - the U.S. Ambassador and his mistress in Paris, an Army Major and his mistress at a beach house in Kauai, a scientist found slumped in a bathtub in Florence, each victim staring straight ahead, their eyes turned blood red.

As Keno and O'Neill draw closer to the identity of the killer - an individual of immense political and financial power - they are suddenly framed as terrorist collaborators, with only O'Neill's former FBI partner, NSA Director Mac Osborne, the President of the United States and Paris Inspector Henri Garneau standing behind them. From the Oval Office to the FBI Forensic Lab, from the Scottish Highlands to London and Paris, from Florence to Kauai and into the lair of the world's deadliest terrorist cell, O'Neill and Keno race to save themselves and prevent a cascading global catastrophe.

And behind it all, like a hawk circling over prey, is the most lethal serial killer the world has ever known. More intelligent than Hannibal Lecter, more ruthless than Stalin - a killer who wants to murder the entire world.

And who may very well be the Anti-Christ...
