Led by the mysterious Ryder, they separate the first carriage and take the passengers hostage, demanding a ransom of $10 million within the hour—or blood will be spilled. Walter Garber, a supervisory officer under investigation for bribery, is the only contact with Ryder. With the stock market crashing and time running out, Garber must play a deadly psychological game. What does Ryder really want? And can Garber save the hostage's life before everything explodes?
