註釋Secretary of State, Randall Tanner, was shocked when he read the Top Secret file discovered by one of his Ambassadors that revealed that the President was guilty of treason. After three agonizing days he decided that there was no other solution: The President had to die. Tanner initiated a plot to have President Ted Hoskins assassinated in a way that would make his death look like an accident. Fearing what she might know about the President's activities, the plotters also killed Hoskins' mistress, the Secretary of the Interior, Sarah Brewster. For five years it looked like they had gotten away with it, until Sarah's alcoholic husband found her diary including the details of her affair with the President. Broke, drunk and angry, the husband contacted an ex-CIA agent turned international affairs writer to ghost-write a book spilling all of Hoskins' dirty secrets, revelations that would raise questions that the conspirators couldn't afford to have asked. The killers quickly got rid of Sarah's husband, but by then the diary had fallen into the hands of his daughter, Allison, and the ghostwriter, Steve Grant. Barely one step ahead of the killers, Steve and Allison desperately search for Sarah's last hidden file that contains the whole story about the President, a file they have to find before the killers find them if they expect to have any hope of staying alive.
