OUT OF TODAY'S HEADLINES - CYBER WAR IN AMERICA - IT'S ALREADY HAPPENING. WILL IT BE THE NEXT PEARL HARBOR?

An international criminal, known only as DARIUS, has offered to sell to the U.S. stolen intelligence of vital interest to homeland security. He has stipulated that payment be in diamonds carried by DALTON ROSS, a one time pilot for Air Algerie, to Stone Town in East Africa where a courier will contact him. At a deserted spice plantation outside Stone Town, Ross finds the courier murdered. The intelligence is missing, but the dead man carries a notebook listing people targeted for assassination. Beside one of the names is a reference to Department X
Who is Darius? What is Department X? The search for answers will take Ross on a dangerous hunt through Cairo's City of the Dead, the old quarters of Tangier and Algiers, and into a conflicted love affair with a young Israeli Mossad operative. The mystery of Darius, as well as Department X, will only be revealed after a climactic assault on a medieval complex of tunnels and cisterns on a private Greek island.
DEPARTMENT X is a contemporary thriller about the very real and nightmarish threat of cyber war looming in the near future.
