[Ari Ciminon (The 56th Man) 03] • Cold Snap

In his third outing, Ari Ciminon (The 56th Man) is enlisted by one of his neighbors to search for her missing husband. Feeling out of place in his new home, he thinks this is the perfect way to establish his 'tribal' credentials. But what begins as a hunt for a runaway spouse quickly spirals out of control. The missing husband is not only a crook, but he becomes a target for the Chaldean Mafia when he unintentionally steals a list of illegal Iraqi immigrants. This leads Ari to a Korean 'crash-for-cash' operation, a maimed ex-Marine and a group of college students terrorized into committing atrocities on American soil. Enlisting the aid of Abu Jasim (his ever-greedy Saddam Hussein-lookalike companion), Abu Jasim's nephew, Ahmad, and an ex-serviceman, Ari sets out to retrieve the immigrant database—only to come upon a mysterious DVD that presents him with evidence that Saddam Hussein's legacy not only lives…but threatens the world.
