The novel posits that there was a nuclear attack against the US on March 21, 2020 by North Korea, and that a national bipartisan commission was created to investigate what and how it happened. It's pretty scary stuff.

But just how serious is the threat of nuclear war against North Korea?

Unaware that this single act will brand him a spy and cost his freedom, Ian takes the shot. Now, he must pay the penalty.

On the map of the 21st century, there are states that seek to integrate into the world, others that compete within its rules, and a very small number that have chosen to exist outside them. North Korea belongs to this last category. It is not simply an isolated country. It is a closed system that has turned isolation into strategy, fear into a political structure, and survival into a doctrine of state. At the center of that system stands Kim Jong Un, a figure who combines dynastic continuity, absolute control, and a logic of power that defies the traditional categories of international ...
