Five billionaires plot to assassinate Iran’s supreme leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, by hiring the most expensive killer in the world. Iran learns of the plot through a web of sex, lies, and betrayal, but they know that in counterterrorism. only one service in the world has the wherewithal to bring down the assassin—and it’s operated by a country Iran refuses to recognize.
