It's politics as usual in New York City when Larry MacIver, world renowned criminologist, is tapped by NYC Mayor Ruth Newberg to save NYC from a second 9/11 attack. Will it be nuclear? Will it be bio? MacIver and his geeky assistant Manish Das must overcome FBI ineptitude, CIA intrigue and, most of all, the evil and ruthless Iranian terrorist Shalah Muhammud, to save the city. Written under the pen name of Colin Heston by a criminologist of international repute, this gripping and sometimes comical story offers a glimpse into the real world of counter terrorism. It would be funny, if it weren't for the terrible destruction and suffering that a second 9/11 would bring.

Colin Heston is the pen name of a criminologist of international repute, so he knows something about the real world of crime and terrorism. As a criminologist, Heston has written nonfiction books on the history of punishment and torture, edited a four-volume encyclopedia on Crime and Punishment around the World and many other nonfiction books, including the controversial Just and Painful: A Case for the Corporal Punishment of Criminals (Macmillan/Harrow). Having dabbled in fiction off and on for several decades, this is his first novel. It will be followed in coming months by a collection of his short stories that range far beyond crime and punishment, exploring the vicissitudes of human nature.
