After the debacle of the Luxembourg Affair, al-Qaeda have put out an unofficial fatwa on Mister Jacks, with a rich reward being promised to the one who brings him down. Initially the hunt is taken up by al-Hashashin, but they find Jacks too difficult to locate and enlist the aid of the Red Mafia. Now Jacks is being hunted down by two of the world's top assassins. When, thanks to his mentor, Jacks learns that he is being hunted, his ruthless instinct for survival comes into play. The hunted then becomes the hunter - with fatal consequences.
