Briggs and Co.'s mission is to prove the operative did NOT kill the senator on behalf of his government. The prime suspect is businessman R.J. McMillian, Townsend's primary backer. The secretary believes McMillian killed Townsend to create a martyr and to create momentum for a preemptive war with the Soviet Bloc.

But, at the climactic moment, there's a twist that even Briggs doesn't anticipate. Written by Anonymous See less
