About this listen

November 27, 2020. A one-ton remote-controlled machine gun, smuggled into Iran piece by piece, waits on the Absard highway for Dr. Mohsen Rahimi—Iran's nuclear weapons architect and a grandfather who coaches youth soccer.

The assassination takes sixty-three seconds and triggers a five-year manhunt by Captain Reza Amiri, who will stop at nothing to find his childhood friend's killers. As Marcus coordinates the most sophisticated elimination in intelligence history, Dr. Ahmad Tehrani attends the funeral and refuses to provide intelligence for targeting other Iranians.

Some hunts are personal. Some friendships transcend politics. And sometimes the mathematics of prevention and cure become indistinguishable. The network that prevented nuclear war is about to be destroyed by the pursuit of justice.
