There are those who would harm America. Terrorists. Assassins. Foreign operatives. The Border Patrol tries to hold back the lethal tsunami, but at times it’s just overwhelming. At times, America needs a scalpel, not a sword. That’s Billy Gamble.

Billy is a Wyoming horse breeder. Mostly Quarter Horses and the occasional Appaloosa. He is also a Super Matcher, one of five in the world and the only one in America. Better than a machine and more accurate than artificial intelligence, Billy can pick out a face in a crowd and no disguise or even plastic surgery can fool him. It’s a talent he didn’t ask for, but one that his country desperately needs.

A man is coming. He plans to kill. To make an example. Only Billy can find him. Only Billy can stop him. It’s just a matter of violence. And time is running out.

Flesh and bone can be changed. The geometry of the face cannot.
