Synopsis

This thrilling story of international espionage commences when the mysterious Blenheim Group purchases the Kestrel Hotel and Resorts chain for billions of dollars from Sir Martin Treadway, head of the multinational conglomerate EUF. Soon the consummate global hotelier Rolfe Ritter-Kestrel's former CEO and its founder-launches a secret investigation of the Blenheim Group, when he learns that several key Kestrel general managers around the world have suddenly and perplexingly died. Their deaths occurred just before Blenheim's new chief executive, the polished but ruthless East European Dimitri Netski, announces that the coming G8 Summit-which will bring together the leaders of the world's mightiest economies-is to take place at the Kestrel's luxurious Audley, San Diego Cliffs Resort. Ritter and his loyal, international confidants soon become convinced by compelling evidence that the Blenheim Group's single, sinister purpose is to sabotage the G8 Summit. But why? To uncover Netski's nefarious plot and the true identity of his powerful backers, Rolfe Ritter enlists the help of his devoted proteges: Matt Dirksen-the story's unyielding hero-who is the general manager of the Audley, San Diego Cliffs, and Beth Taylor-Matt's beautiful lover and the general manager of the Kestrel, Santa Monica. When Rolfe, Matt, and Beth's sleuthing marks them for death, they quickly become enmeshed with the CIA, FBI, Israel's Mossad, the UK's MI6, Russia's FSB, formerly the KGB, and Te-Wu, the Chinese Secret Service, as Netski and his gang march relentlessly towards their monstrous objective.
