The Feds suspect al Qaeda, but former agent Frank Talbot, called out of semi-retirement and into a clash of egos, knows better. It's not the usual suspects. It's a group of Americans. Politicians, lawyers, and veterans are being drawn into an organization that even the president admits has some merit. The Feds are fixated on foreign involvement, government advisers and lawyers are calling for restraint, and yet another kidnapping is unfolding in the Pacific Northwest. Talbot finds he must do what the government either cannot or will not do. Using the media and a relic from the past to avoid posse comitatus, Talbot discovers he can't tell the good guys from the bad. With a crew that the president calls a bunch of cartoon characters, he's pitted against a coalition of white supremacists, anti-Semitic activists, right wing militias, and his worst enemy, the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Like an aging Spenser, Frank Talbot can have you in stitches, and that could be good or bad.
