When the enormous, Texas-based oil field management and exploration company, AG Striker, requests seismic details of an undersized oil reserve just off Equatorial Guinea’s coast, what they find astounds them: beneath the small field lies a literal ocean of oil, bigger than the entire Saudi Arabian deposit.
Striker’s position is that their lease for the area gives them control of the field and, essentially, Equatorial Guinea. Enlisting the CIA and an enigmatic military company called Hadrian, Striker plots to overthrow the existing government of Equatorial Guinea and replace it with a puppet they can control completely. A document called The Hadrian Memorandum provides Striker’s power and guarantees its ownership of the field and the state.
A brave few strive to uncover what’s really going on. Both the President of the United States John Henry Harris and former LAPD homicide detective Nicholas Marten return in this thrilling adventure which will delight new readers as well as fans of their earlier appearances in the New York Times bestsellers The Exile and The Machiavelli Covenant. With the help of a famed German novelist and a beautiful woman already in deep cover at Striker, they will fight to uncover damning evidence that will break the plot behind The Hadrian Memorandum wide open.
