SIMON ASHER is a former accountant and Quantico's first gay recruit. Or is he? A mystery, wrapped in a riddle, wrapped in a pair of hipster glasses, Simon's calm, pleasant demeanor belies some dark secrets and serious questions. Like how did a man who spent his professional career managing spreadsheets become so proficient at firing a gun? Perhaps that has something to do with a mysterious past in the Middle East. And Nimah Amin might be the one to crack this riddle since Simon has a deep interest in her that may go beyond friendship. Is Simon in love, or does Nimah remind him of the ghosts of his past? From day one at Quantico to the day after the bombing, Simon takes a long and strange journey that leads Alex to find him in a very unexpected place. Brilliant, calculating and deadly, Simon is unpredictable, but his genius and expertise may be Alex's only hope of figuring out who really bombed Grand Central.
