Global Security Force Captain Josh steps into a strange scene in Tokyo, where Doctor Sara Yamamoto has been kidnapped, along with her newly discovered cure for cancer. She worked four hard years to nail down a DNA-based cancer cure to save her mother. On the eve of success, she and her irritating coworker, Matt, are kidnapped from their Tokyo lab, along with all of her research.

For the last three months, Doctor Yamamoto's scientist partner, Matt Bernstein, has plagued her with his accident prone nature, and profuse claims of his love. Now, overnight, she finds herself forced to live in captivity with this awkward nerd who seems intent on bludgeoning them before they might attempt to escape.

Much to her chagrin, Sara discovers that a madman named Tanaka is responsible for their kidnapping and stolen data, and now he claims he has used all of her hard work to create a killer virus. Tanaka says everyone in Tokyo and Singapore is infected. He can simply push a button and kill any individual person-or everyone-depending on his mood at any moment, and he seems to be able to back up that claim.

Flanking the bad guy on one side is Astarte, the Canaanite goddess of sex and war, and on the other stands an eleven-foot-tall giant named Gath, who loves nothing more than to maim and destroy. One of his favorite techniques is to stand on a hapless human and pull his or her arms off. He has his sights on Sara when she has served her purpose for Tanaka.

Josh chases clues in Tokyo, while his second in command, Eleazar, does the same in Singapore, where two other scientists have also gone missing. Tanaka claims he has all four doctors in his grip.

Tanaka makes wild demands of GSF, and gives them a five day deadline. At midnight on Thursday night, if his demands are not met, he will push the button and kill everyone in Tokyo and Singapore.

Josh fights the relentless clock, tracking down leads and fighting off smokies. He would love nothing more than to face off against Astarte or Gath or Tanaka, or all three. The problem is that he can't find them anywhere.

Matt and Sara recognize a spark of attraction as they are forced to live together. Will they live to fan this new ember into flame? Will Josh arrive in time to rescue them?
