Pilgrim was the codename for a world class and legendary secret agent. He was once head of a secret internal affairs force for US intelligence. The adopted son of a wealthy American family, he wrote the definitive book on forensic criminal investigation before he disappeared into anonymous retirement. When NYPD detective Ben Bradley tracks down Pilgrim using that very book, neither man can imagine the terrifying journey they are about to begin. What starts as an unusual and challenging murder investigation—a woman found facedown in a bath of acid, her features erased, her teeth missing, her fingerprints gone—becomes a terrifying race-against-time to save America from oblivion. Pilgrim will have to make a journey from a public beheading in Mecca to a deserted ruins on the Turkish coast via a Nazi death camp in Alsace and the barren wilderness of the Hindu Kush in search of the faceless man who would commit an appalling act of mass murder in the name of his God.
