Operating under the code-name Blue Orchid, the embittered Palestinian knows he has but a few months to live as he sets about assembling a team of followers drawn from radical splinter groups throughout the Mideast.

Tony Bull, a disillusioned FBI agent assigned to track the whereabouts of the obscure terrorist, finds that his own personal demons threaten to derail the investigation, but even as he struggles to put his career back together, he pursues Abu Salah-al-Din into the labyrinth network of tunnels beneath Grand Coulee Dam. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\"> Two men from opposite ends of the earth, with more in common than either would care to admit, embark on a collision course from which neither is likely to survive.
