At the center of a nearly insolvent Dubai, the 900-meter Falcon Tower, the world's tallest skyscraper, is near completion, and the unpaid Pakistani "guest" laborers who slaved on its construction will soon have nowhere to go. Or will they? Guided by an emboldened leader, brazen Islamic extremists are bent on the ruin of the West, and the goal of forging a 21st century Islamic caliphate. The laborers' despair then fueled and turned into hatred by a mysterious mullah, they will become waves of jihadist martyrs in the name of Islam.

Following a rash of horrific coordinated suicide bombings in England and the United States, Navy Captain Bryan Craig and Pegasus, a London based elite counter-terrorism posse he commands, are tasked with hunting those responsible. Combining financial tracking, and the most advanced forensics lab in the world, Bryan and Shannon Parker, his muse, and brilliant terrorist profiler, embark on a perilous journey from London to Dubai, and finally the Hindu Kush mountains of Pakistan, a region tormented by the Taliban, thugs vying for control of the world's only Islamic nuclear arsenal.

What will be the fate of the West as the Islamist's strategy of global domination unfolds? Along the way, Bryan retraces footsteps of the old British Empire, and discovers clues to what new terror may be planned, leading to a climatic, and very chilling ending. In a time of increased global financial uncertainty, and religious suspicions exacerbated along with the growing economic concerns, FALCON ON THE TOWER is insightful and thought provoking, an eye opening look at a conflict that has lasted 14 centuries.
