Why did the CIA, by pressure and threats, force the U.S. president to pardon a major attorney swindler, Joel Backman, who had spent six years in a strict-regime prison? Perhaps rumors were confirmed that Backman had information capable of destroying the entire system of satellite spying, and the intelligence services preferred to strike a deal with this dangerous man. Now Backman has a new name, new documents, a solid bank account, and a house in a new country… but there is not a second of peace. He understands: people who know too much get rid of.
Sooner or later, he will have to fight for his life… but when and with whom?
