One man must stop separatists targeting a tourist destination on the US border in this thriller by "the John D. MacDonald of espionage fiction" (Larry McMurtry, The New York Times).   A movement is afoot in Canada's majority French–speaking province, Quebec, to separate from the rest of the country, and the FLQ is the organization leading the way. But some supporters of the cause are impatient—and want to take the fight to another level.   Now ex–CIA agent John Gall is being called in to stop an armed splinter group—and an explosive terrorist attack at Niagara Falls—in this action-packed thriller by an Edgar Award–nominated author.
