The latest nerve-shredding adventure thriller in the popular Isaac Bell series from international bestseller Clive Cussler.

It is 1906, and in New York City, the Italian crime group known as the Black Hand is on a spree—kidnapping, extortion, arson. Detective Isaac Bell of the Van Dorn Agency is hired to form a special Black Hand Squad, but the gangsters appear to be everywhere. So much so that Bell begins to wonder if there are imitators, criminals using the name for the terror effect.

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