Terrorism comes to the rural Midwest heartland-can one ordinary man stop it? Islamist terrorists frame small town Minnesotan Nat "Hack" Wilder for the murder of his friend Amir Mohammad. Hack must survive a January blizzard, elude the police and F.B.I., track down the real killers, infiltrate a terrorist gathering, and stop a terrorist attack on his nine-year-old daughter's school. This is a suspenseful fast-paced action thriller that is often disturbing, sometimes surprisingly funny, and always PC-indifferent.
