Nothing more could go wrong for maverick hostage negotiator Mulvaney Quinn.

First stabbed in the hand during a failed terrorist burst, then arrested for a hate crime he didn't commit.

Now Quinn must come face to face with his past in order to stop the worst terrorist threat of all time - a plot to bring about the ultimate religious uprising by destroying one of the most sacred relics in history.

But the Fuse of Armageddon has already been lit. With the clock ticking down toward a global catastrophe, Quinn must team up with the most unlikely ally of all - the woman who arrested him - to bring down an even more unlikely coalition of enemies. Facing an unholy trinity of a Jewish fanatic, a Muslim terrorist and a 'Christian' freedom fighter, only Quinn can stop them from achieving their goal. But will he be in time? Or is it already too late? Because when Armageddon is unleashed, the fate of the entire world hangs in the balance.
