**  
Crime, corruption and murder. . . a vicious organisation is terrorising the city and only one man can stop them.**  
**  
The Black Hand Strikes**  
1906, New York City. Italian gangsters calling themselves the Black Hand terrorize citizens in a menacing spree of kidnapping, extortion and arson.

**Who dares stop them?**  
Detective Isaac Bell of the Van Dorn Agency is hired to form a special 'Black Hand Squad' - but with each gangster caught a new one appears on the street. Are these new recruits or other criminals imitating the Black Hand? Where _are_ these men coming from?

**Murder is just the beginning . . .**  
Then the killings start. Each victim is a man more powerful than the last. Bell is convinced that he's facing a murderous organization hell bent on bringing the city to its knees.

But that's before he discovers their ultimate target - the most powerful man in the country: the President of the United States . . .
