Buckley Landson is a Congressman from Ohio, and a racing fan, especially of the Indianapolis Speedway Race. Jim Phillips is the son of James Phillips, creator and top man at Dresden Industries, and also a race fan who plans to work in the pits of the upcoming 500. Amil Nazhar is a Middle Eastern man with beloved family back home who has been given the highest honor of his life, the opportunity to disrupt this very American tradition on Memorial Day by burning to death tens of thousands of fans. This book reveals a way to do it from a writer who has been there many times, although Dresden Industries is sure that their new equipment will keep terrorists out of sensitive areas at the track. Buck, Jim, Buck's long dead wife, his new wife, and Amil Nazhar meet in a stunning conclusion, and although this book doesn't cover the race, since it ends as the race begins, it will also appeal to Indy fans, especially those who have been there.
