Russian Chechen and reformed arms trafficker Ivan Gouchenko is killed in his home. The murder of the CEO of Apobiotech Pharma’s Turkish division, a $40-million deal, allegations of money laundering, and the theft of a virus take on international proportions.
To solve the crime, Fisher, Director of Canadian Operations at Neuro-Alpha, asks Dr. Derren to extract the memories of one man: Jalel Al-Hariz, one of the world’s most wanted terrorists. A routine job for a criminal intelligence officer, but a most thrilling mission for a neurologist.
Except the reformed trafficker’s stepdaughter finds herself mixed up in the matter. And Fischer’s former flame is accused of fraud.
On the heels of Memoriam, the intrepid Fisher-Derren duo returns to untangle Kilis’s imbroglio in Montreal, from the suffering of a refugee camp to the sterilized labs of Bio Pharma. They will stop at nothing, even if it means uncovering the most violent of memories or breaking into the most wicked of minds.
