What if the foremost scientist in the field of nanotechnology and microrobotics used his inventions to take our world leaders hostage and enact his own political agenda? Dr. J. Maurice Carpenter has worked for decades at the Brookhaven National Laboratory on a top-secret government project to develop a terrifying new breed of weaponry. Launching an attempt to take over the world, Carpenter commences his plans by implanting a microscopic robot in the body of the President of the United States. The only hope for stopping Carpenter is an ex-Marine FBI agent named Bill Maddox, who is more suited to working narcotics than handling a global endgame crisis. In far over his head but determined to prove his worth, Maddox plunges into a labyrinth of danger, matching wits against an intellect far superior to his own. In doing so, he confronts a friend-or-foe femme fatale and a technology potentially more deadly than any the world has ever witnessed, a technology that exists today.
