Summary
They are the most valuable coins on earth ...Only a handful still exist, each one worth millions ...Now they have vanished from an impenetrablefortress...and the killings have begun.Somehow, impossibly, someone has invaded Fort Knox and stolen five of the world's last remaining Double Eagles — the $20 gold coin ordered destroyed by President Roosevelt during the Great Depression. Now, one has resurfaced during an autopsy in France — in the stomach of a murdered priest.Disgraced FBI agent Jennifer Browne needs to recover the priceless coins to resuscitate her stalled career — and her investigation is pointing her toward Tom Kirk, a brilliant international art thief who wants to get out of the game. But Kirk's only chance for freedom — and survival — is to find the missing coins, joining Browne, an unlikely ally, on a breakneck race across the globe and into the lethal heart of a shocking conspiracy of greed and power...and death.
