The CIA's top operative was on the hunt for terrorists who were determined to assassinate the American president and the ten Southeast Asian leaders at a summit in Kauai, Hawaii.
Ted Morrow, who had just saved the American president and the Polish prime minister from an assassination attempt in Washington, DC, was sent to East Java to investigate two bombings at the Surabaya Zoo and the Borobudur Buddhist Temple. He teamed up with Scott Burnham, his boss, and Leilani Ramirez, a Filipino sniper, to hunt for the terrorists in Southeast Asia.
After successfully terminating the terrorists, the trio were sent to Washington, DC, to hunt for the North Korean assassins who were sent to the American capital to assassinate President Stevenson for shooting down a North Korean missile launched over the Pacific. It set Morrow and his team on a trajectory that would bring them to Macau to hunt for an Indonesian traitor who conspired with the North Koreans against the CIA.
Morrow teamed up with Leilani Ramirez, the sharpshooter, to foil the assassins who traveled to Washington, DC, to detonate a miniature nuclear bomb. And just at the moment, the North Korean assassins were about to detonate the miniature nuclear bomb, Leilani shot the North Koreans, thus preventing a nuclear blast on American soil. But Kim Pak-il, the North Korean supreme leader, was furious, and he vowed to assassinate Stevenson. He found a way to do it.
He would send assassins to assassinate President Stevenson who was going to preside over a summit meeting of the ten leaders of the ASEAN countries to be held in Kauai. The question is, how would the North Koreans accomplish the mass assassination that would trigger the demise of the American president and the ten Southeast Asian leaders all at once?
