Jack Bauer will do anything to stop a deadly plot against the world’s top religious leaders in this original thriller novel based on the TV series 24.
Operating out of a nearly empty space in Los Angeles, the newly created CTU faces its first major crisis. A large amount of plastique explosive has vanished and could be anywhere—in the hands of criminals, crazies, outlaw bikers . . . or Islamic radicals. As powerful representatives of the world’s major religions gather for a conference on faith, peace, and coexistence, agents of the elite counterterrorism unit must chase elusive shadows through the underbelly of L.A.
A nightmare of assassination and terror is looming—an explosive threat that must be exposed and defused within twenty-four hours, or violent repercussions will be felt around the world. And only one man possesses the necessary drive, skill, and willingness to operate beyond the limits of the law: a dangerous rogue CIA operative . . . named Jack Bauer.
