With no legitimate heir to Queen Elizabeth's throne, and no clear successor, England finds itself in a supremely perilous moment.

Must Will be ensnared in a ruthless plot fated to tumble his country into civil war? Or can he navigate a treacherous path through the dark warrens of London and the tortuous world of Elizabethan politics to save his family, his country, and his Queen?

Forty days and forty nights of torrential rain swell the Mississippi River to the brink of deadly rampage. Clementine Price, a young Army Corps of Engineers officer born beside the river, draws on science, brutal loss, and a warrior spirit to protect the people and the homeland she loves from a catastrophic flood. Suddenly, she discovers that a richly funded domestic terrorist—hiding in plain sight as a pillar of the community— has ingeniously weaponized the looming natural disaster. Inspired by a river as powerful as it is unpredictable, his plot to inundate the Delta and cleave from America his own white supremacist nation is already in motion. Clementine has only hours to stop civil war and save millions from drowning. With the help of fellow Corps officers, civil servants, farmers, and local law enforcement, Clementine must harness the power of the torrent to turn nature’s fury against her enemy and embrace the raging river as her most potent ally.

If he is right about his fears, then he is on the trail of one of the greatest monsters of his time.

And then the murders begin, each one of a man more powerful than the last, and as Bell discovers, to his dismay, the ultimate target may be the most powerful man of all.

And this one will be the most explosive of all.

Americký zbrojní průmysl utrpí obrovskou ztrátu, když jeden z nejlepších konstruktérů bitevních lodí spáchá sebevraždu. Nicméně sebevraždu provází řada podezřelých okolností a tak se do celé záležitosti vloží legendární detektivní agentura Van Dorn a její nejlepší detektiv Isaac Bell. Rozjíždí se tak řetězec událostí, které ukazují na širší spiknutí a Bell se ocitá v souboji s tajemným špionem, jenž je spojen s přísně tajným projektem Hull 44.

Rok 1907 je rokem finanční paniky a dělnických protestů. V té době také pokračuje obrovský rozmach železnic směrem na západ. Jedním z nejvýznamnějších železničních magnátů je Osgood Hennessy, jehož Jižní pacifická dráha se mimo jiné snaží o vybudování kratšího spojení přes Kaskádové pohoří, kde musí postavit tunely a obrovský most přes kaňon. Pokud se to nepodaří do zimy, stáhnou bankéři finance a Hennessy zkrachuje. V té době začíná řádění sabotéra přezdívaného Ničitel, jenž škodí Jižní pacifické po celých Spojených státech a zanechává za sebou mrtvoly a vykolejené vlaky. Zoufalý železniční magnát si najme Van Dornovu detektivní agenturu, aby tomu řádění učinila přítrž, a Van Dorn pověří vyšetřováním Isaaka Bella, mladého, pohledného detektiva, jenž se umí zkušeně pohybovat jak v salonech „privilegované hrstky“, tak v džungli tuláckých osad u nádraží velkých měst. Přestože se čtenář identitu tajemného Ničitele dozví celkem záhy, čeká Isaaka Bella dlouhé a nebezpečné pátrání, při němž musí zjistit, zda se jedná o anarchistu snažícího se svrhnout nadvládu kapitálu nebo o člověka s vlastními sobeckými motivy. Dokonale vykreslená atmosféra té doby s množstvím historických reálií vtáhne čtenáře do děje a nedovolí mu vydechnout dřív než na poslední straně tohoto skutečně napínavého thrilleru.
