Deadly Agendas

A telephone call originating in Idaho triggers alarms as far away as New York and Paris. When the secretary of the interior's helicopter is shot out of the sky, his plans to develop an exclusive residential community on lands owned by his wife's family are put on hold. The president's national security advisor suspects the secretary's murder may signal the beginning of a series of terrorist attacks on US soft targets, possibly sponsored by the Saudi royal family, to stop the secretary's push to tap additional US oil and gas reserves. CIA operative Alec Caldwell, a master at mountain man skills, is tasked with finding the crash site in the remote Idaho Mountains. Conflicting evidence leads Caldwell to suspect there is more to the secretary's death than meets the eye. When deadly radioactive waste is found buried in the secretary's development, Alec tracks the culprit to Europe, but a contract assassin silences his target before he can take him into custody. Caldwell ultimately identifies the assassin but does not turn her over to the FBI. He and the CIA have other plans for her considerable talents. Caught up in a web of mistakes in handling the case, a disgruntled FBI agent blames Alec for his problems and targets him for assassination. Can Beth get Alec the medical attention he needs to save his life or do the Alec Caldwell sagas end here?
