During an international conference in Japan, an earthquake hits Tokyo trapping the world leaders including the American President. Nature is also dishing up a tsunami to follow. Unbeknownst to Mercer, there is also a Japanese terror group hell bent on hunting down and killing the President. Jake Mercer will demonstrate his determination to protect the President at all costs while overcoming all the obstacles in his way! A great, must read story.
