A masterful marksman returns to his old craft after hearing tell of an assassination attempt against the President, forced to track down the culprit after he is framed in the plot.

ABSTRACT
Bob Lee Swagger, a brilliant marksman hailing from a veritably patriotic American pedigree, lives a reclusive life in the rural Mountain West following a bungled military operation in Ethiopia some years ago. Asked to return to action at the urging of a lisping colonel upon learning of a credible plot to assassinate the President, Bob soon becomes the wanted "fall guy" in the ensuing chaos, charged with following a daredevil road back to his misbegotten days in Ethiopia if he is to uncover the real assassin and their motive for implicating him in the ordeal.
