In Skaneateles Lake, New York just as Kurt proposes marriage to his beloved Jill, Grace calls to tell him that Collin is dead. The Alexandria, Virginia police believe Collin committed suicide using a gun through his mouth to blow away his brains. Kurt refuses to accept the official explanation as he does not believe Collin would take such an action. He begins to investigate and soon learns about an enigmatic meeting with the President in which several of the attendees are now dead. Kurt intricately knows the layers protecting the President including THE FOURTH PERIMETER of secret service agents. He plans to use this knowledge to assassinate the man whom Kurt believes had his son murdered though he knows it will still take a Hail Mary to succeed.
Though not offering any new offensive thrust, Tim Green provides fans of political thrillers with an exciting tale due to the likable hurting hero. Fans will root for Kurt to score because his pain as a beloved father of the victim feels genuine and his need to sack his son's killer will garner much empathy. The story line follows the sub-genre game plan, but Kurt turns THE FOURTH PERIMETER into an engaging tale.
