It's a snazzy craft, slick and outfitted with extra horsepower, and is zipping along until it slows to pick up a surfaced diver - a diver who was apparently alone, without his own boat, in the middle of the ocean. None of it makes sense, and his hunch is proved right when all three Guardsmen who come out to investigate are shot and killed. They're federal officers killed on the job, which means the case is the FBI's turf. When the FBI's investigation stalls out, they call in Lucas Davenport. And when his case turns lethal, Davenport will need to bring in every asset he can claim, including a detective with a fundamentally criminal mind - Virgil Flowers.

Suddenly, two texts from her mother pierce the fray: 'Something has gone wrong,' and 'How soon can you get here?'

An international terrorist organisation is plotting an assassination attempt on him. If he is taken away from the school, the terrorist organisation will be alerted to the fact that it is compromised. So the authorities take the high-risk option: they deploy the Special Forces Cadets to the school to bodyguard the target and to gather intelligence. The royal goes on a glamorous school skiing trip to Zermatt, so the cadets accompany him. When the royal's police guards are murdered on the slopes, they are unable to stop him being kidnapped.
