Publisher's Summary

A brilliant boy's unconventional thinking makes him an intelligence asset and a terrorist target. 

After winning a baseball game with an innovative toss of a rosin bag, Will Conlan catches the interest of a chief operative of the Homeland Security's Analytic Red Cell. Employing the creative problem solving of philosophers, futurists, and Hollywood movie writers, this intelligence unit is seeking any original ideas about anticipating terrorist plots. 

As a recent surge of terrorist activity undermines these fresh insights, the operative banks on the notion that Will's youthful imagination, unclouded by the premise of it can't be done, may provide the key insight they need and seeks to secretly exploit Will's unhindered out-of-the-box thinking. 

Unaware of the magnitude of danger surrounding him, Will uncovers something he wasn't supposed to discover a connection between a television advertisement and a master terrorist plot. Narrowly surviving, he alone foils a bombing at Wrigley Field. Uncertain about the knowledge he now holds, he has to figure out the terrorists' next target. Will just doesn't realize it's him.
