August is the quietest month in Washington. Yet as Congress leaves for its annual summer retreat, the nation is rocked by a series of attacks that leave much of the executive branch dead and the federal government in disarray.
As the Pentagon begins retaliating against suspected foreign extremists, counter-terrorism agent Blake Carver begins piecing together an ominous set of clues that predate the attacks: a murdered soldier, a corrupt defense contractor and satellite photos of a revolutionary new desalination plant in Iran.
As Carver soon learns, the experts have it all wrong. It's up to Carver to stop a group of powerful Washington insiders battling over control of the White House.
