The Falcon

Six Degrees of Separation Theory stipulates all people on the planet are connected to every other person through a chain of acquaintances consisting of no more than five intermediaries. If this theory were true, one must then ask, could six random and isolated events happening on the world stage also be connected through five unrelated intermediaries? But first, we meet the central trio: Sam Mulcahy, the CIA operative working undercover in Beirut, Lebanon, who uncovers part two of the 9/11 attacks; Jamal Abboud emerges on the scene as the leader of the Al-Qaeda team plotting an attack somewhere in the US; and finally, Sasha Kopytina, completing the third leg of the triangle. How fate and circumstances worked to get Sasha to play a pivotal role in putting Sam and Jamal on their collision course remains to be seen. As each event concluded, it set into motion additional events—events that would lead to death and destruction, and test the limits and stretch the boundaries of relationships, friendship, and even the true meaning of love. But more importantly, this tangled sequence of events raises a critical question; if a person kills evil to prevent evil, does that make them evil?
