The year is 1956 and the world is at peacebut not for long. A rogue British MI6 agent, code name Lucky Break, is planning to assassinate the president of Egypt, Gamal Abdel Nasser, with the intent of igniting a powder keg under Egypts ally, the Soviet Union, and starting World War III. Fearing that the United States will be dragged into a war that no one wants, and with the haunting specter of a nuclear holocaust looming, the CIA sends Alex Logan to Egypt to hunt down and kill the spy before he assassinates Nasser. Logan pursues him through the streets and alleyways in a cat-and-mouse chase in the ancient city of Alexandria, only to find himself consumed by his own past. But Logan has a bigger problem to solve. He has only seven days to find and stop Lucky Break in a city of four million people before he strikes and the Soviets play their doomsday card. The stakes have never been higher. In this fast-paced Cold War thriller, Logan is up against a ticking clockand impossible odds.
