"An excellent read. It starts out strong, and then it gets better."
--Larry Bond, New York Times Bestselling author of Red Phoenix


NCIS Special Agent Mia Patel's heart is in the right place but her anger issues and unorthodox approach to catching criminals tends to piss people off. Although she consistently delivers results, she does so at the heavy price of alienating everyone in her life.

Mia's new partner is Lawson Pacheco, a former Navy SEAL who lost his team and nearly his life in a mysterious friendly-fire incident on a mountainside in Afghanistan that occurred the day after he witnessed what he thought was the use of biological weapons on Afghan noncombatants.

"A must read for fans of Brad Thor and Vince Flynn!"
--Ward Larsen, USA Today bestselling author of Assassin's Revenge.

Together, Mia and Law investigate a mysterious mass shooting at a VA hospital by a decorated Navy veteran with no priors. On the surface, it appears as to be a PTSD-triggered murder-suicide. But was it? The whole thing feels wrong to them, especially when there's immense pressure from above to wrap up the case and move on.

Probing deeper costs Mia and Law dearly--and those around them--but the answers are more important.

"Hold on for a great ride!"
--Col. David Hunt, New York Times bestselling author of They Just Don't Get It.

The investigation unknowingly takes them down a twisting path into Law's former life that challenges the official reports of what happened on that mountain while also threatening to expose a pharmaceutical conspiracy reaching the Highest Law of the land.
