Cord Compton helps people solve difficult problems. He and his female associate, Syn, form a powerful team with unique, almost super-power talents.

Casino billionaire Thomas Yearling is kidnapped. After paying a ransom of three million dollars for his freedom, he’s looking for retribution. Yearling believes the ransom money is to be used to finance a terrorist strike. After all six members of the mercenary team he sends to retrieve the money are gruesomely murdered, he calls Cord Compton.

Compton and his partner apply their unique talents to unraveling the secret of the ransom money. But the enemy knows Cord is coming, and they want him dead!

Follow Cord and Syn from the ski trails of Switzerland to Canada, Seattle, California, Las Vegas, South Beach, and finally the Bahamas. Fighting off assassination attempts all along the way, Cord begins to suspect that the ransom is only the beginning!

Liquid Lightning introduces you to all sorts of interesting characters: former secret agents, terrorists, drug lords, circus performers, a Hollywood mogul, world-class hackers, the Mob, a speed-boat sniper, a vicious Australian murderer, a shotgun-wielding diner cook, a homicidal giant, and many more!
