In this heart-pounding novel from the world’s #1 bestselling author, Detective Michael Bennett faces a sinister foe on New York City's holiest ground.

During a state funeral for a former First Lady, armed men disguised as monks seize St. Patrick's Cathedral and take the high-profile hostages ransom.

NYPD officer Michael Bennett steps into the dangerous role of lead negotiator in the standoff.

The city is relying on this humble hero.

So is his family. Bennett and his ten adopted children are facing a devastating loss at home.

As the world watches and the tension boils to a searing heat, Bennett must find a way to rescue them all.
