Escape
Robert K Tanenbaum (University of California at Berkeley)
Claiming God commanded her to gruesomely murder her three small children, a radical political-science professor with a high-profile politician husband pleads insanity, leaving New York District Attorney Roger Butch Karp the arduous–and incredibly unpopular–task of proving that she’s not. Meanwhile, an American-born jihadist detonates a suicide bomb inside a Manhattan synagogue. A harrowing question links the violent crimes: Is there any defense for a killer who believes that committing murder is God’s will? As Karp, his wife Marlene, their daughter Lucy, and a cast of eccentric accomplices begin a deadly manhunt, they uncover an intricate terrorist plot to paralyze New York’s emergency response system and cripple the economy. They must find an assassin known only as The Sheik before he orchestrates a bloody massacre that could devastate the country forever.
