What this book is about
A coordinated terrorist attack hits New York City — targeting the financial district, bridges, and tunnels. Scot Harvath, caught in the middle, must work with minimal support to stop the attackers before the city becomes ungovernable. Takedown is the fifth Scot Harvath novel — Thor's most New York-focused; written in the post-9/11 fear of a follow-on attack.
