After a reception with various bankers, Pres. Pauai of Mahal retires to his hotel suite with his senior staff. They confer on the best course of action after examining the draft agreement submitted by Mr. Portersen and many other bankers. Unfortunately, Pauai is framed for the murder of a beautiful American blonde after he unknowingly drank the drugged champagne and slept with her that very night. The next day, he sends General Loctuck to send his apologies to the bankers because he is ill. Loctuck tells the bankers that much and much more, namely that the government of Mahal is not prepared to accept the draft proposal that the banker suggested. An associate of Alexander calls him frantically pleading him to talk to Pauai in hopes of him convincing Pauai to reverse the current decision announced by the general. Alexander makes vaugue promises to try his best and sends Sinclair to Chicago to clean up this affair.

Alexander learns from various news reports that a young Native American Indian by the name of Hawk accuses Alchemicals of poisoning the land and water of the reservation in an attempt to kill the Native Indians. To make matters worse, Hawk has detained a US Senator investigating these charges against his will and charged him with murder. As a result, both Washington and Ottawa has deployed armed federal law enforcement personel on their own side of the border to effectively surround the reservation until the Senator's release. Alexander's old Native Indian friend stops in Paris to see Alexander and ask for his help to avoid a possible bloodbath due to the sheer number of official agencies involved in this crisis. Alexander introduces him to Peter Sinclair so that the two men could confer as to how to disfuse the crisis. Once again, Peter Sinclair and the team discovers there is much more than what meets the eye.
