That's what he was hired to do, and that's how he should have left it. But instead of handing it over, Jack gave the diamond to charity, and a few days later the government catch up with him. Jack is offered a deal he can't refuse - if he wants to stay free: help catch a major international criminal, and all of Jack's ill-gotten gains will be legitimized. Now he's a Secret Agent Jack heads to London for this final job, unaware that his every move is being monitored. His contact is a mysterious woman named Sarah who terrifies him and their journey ultimately leads to a conspiracy to start a war, and a dark secret at the heart of America's wealthiest family.
