When Interpol uncovers a secret meeting in Yemen, it fears the worst. Iran's new Hezbollah chief, Khan Kojol, is expected, but the other man is not - the notorious international terrorist, Nebuchar Fortuna. Fortuna's father, Aswan, and his brother, Alexander, were the most ruthless terrorists in the world. But both are dead - gunned down by the man they called the American: Dewey Andreas. Fortuna had been lost for two years; inactive, invisible, and, many thought, dead.

As red flags spread the western intelligence complex, the United States initiates the operation. Hector Calibrisi, the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, sits in the back of an onyx Sikorsky S-76 as it slashes across Washington, D.C. His top-secret folder: order Dewey to eliminate Fortuna. But before Calibrisi orders Dewey, he has to first find him.

Now, Dewey and Fortuna meet in the same Emirates Paris-to-Dubai. Dewey is here to assassinate Fortuna when he arrives in Dubai, after the flight. But Fortuna strikes first, about to poisoning Dewey on the plane. When Iranian suicide bombers take the cockpit, both men are betrayed. Hundreds of innocent passengers are about to die - and with them Dewey, Fortuna, and three Iranian suicide bombers.

The jumbo jet is aimed directly into the Burj Khalifa, the largest tower in the world. The plane's fiery death is minutes away. Only one thing can save them: Hijack.
