<DIV><b>As bombs explode across Washington, the FBI must look abroad for help</b></div><DIV>[<BR>The FBI is the most capable agency in the United States when it comes to investigating and eliminating domestic threats. But when Japanese terrorists start detonating bombs in the nation&rsquo;s capital, the FBI finds itself remarkably ill equipped for the task at hand. Turning abroad for help, the Bureau finds the best man for the job: Jack Swann, Scotland Yard&rsquo;s top antiterrorism expert.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>With this entry in his Harrison and Swann thriller series, Jeff Gulvin creates a diverse literary universe. <i>The Covenant </i>smoothly transitions between characters and storylines: from an English tourist&rsquo;s ill-fated trip to Texas to the efforts of a secessionist militia in Oregon; from a series of deaths on Capitol Hill meant to provoke civil war to the struggles of a CIA agent to hunt down and find Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan. Written before the events of September 11, <i>The Covenant </i>is a prescient and pointed view of international politics and espionage in the twenty-first century.</div>
