Jack Forester, Chief of Emergency at a major Upstate New York medical center and the lead character of author Frank J. Edwards’ previous best-selling medical thriller, Final Mercy, faces the challenge of his life as a religious terrorist undertakes to bomb the medical center to stop a new experimental procedure that could change the rules for women’s reproductive care worldwide. But neither Jack nor the terrorist know that the procedure itself really a concealed weapon in the hands of a global conspiracy that will stop at nothing to advance its own hidden ends.

Jack’s hearing-impaired investigative journalist wife Zellie looks into the case after the mysterious disappearance of several medical personnel, only to find herself kidnapped and at the mercy of the henchmen of the conspirators.
