Details: What is a former terrorist doing in Cologne, while the city prepares for the arrival of the most powerful on Earth, summoned for the imminent G8? It is the question that torments Liam O'Connor, Irish physicist nominated for the Nobel Prize and bestselling author, in Germany for a promotional tour. Liam is certain that he saw an old friend of his, Paddy Clohessy, at the airport, once a member of the IRA and now, at least apparently, employed in the structure that is at the center of the maximum security network that surrounds the city. Genius by nature (and often drunk by choice), Liam can't convince anyone of the potential danger: his publicist, Kika Wagner, is too busy enforcing his commitments to booksellers and city notables to listen to his rants ; the police are overwhelmed by an avalanche of far more concrete problems; the airport managers are sure that they have created an unassailable fortress around them. Yet Liam is right: someone has decided that the G8 is the right time to strike at the heart of the international community, to carry out an attack so sensational as to change the destiny of humanity forever. And only he can fully understand the futuristic technology behind that project and stop it. Unless the killer stops him first.
