Senator Temple has his hands full, maneuvering political turmoil at home and the powder keg that is the Middle East.

Powerful oil dynasties-the Kingsleys, the Sheppards, and the Barronses-could help Temple fix things, but greed and old grudges threaten the alliance. Three families, their fates interlinked.
