From the author
of the New York Times bestseller In Her Defense comes a riveting
new thriller of betrayal and redemption in the nation’s
capital.
Philip Barkley
had come far enough in Washington to know where those proverbial
bodies were buried, but not so far that he’d lie about
it. In the capital, that was no man’s land, and his fall
from grace was swift.
When personal
tragedy accelerates his downward spiral, all that remains
is his integrity, and it’s the price of a fresh start.
The disappearance of Senate Intelligence Committee aide Martin
Green indicates a breach of national security. Senator Warren
Young, the party’s best chance to keep the White House,
needs a credible report that the missing man was no spy. Barkley
is required to oversee the investigation and deliver the “right”
result.
As the case progresses
the signs grow more troubling, and even an FBI agent isn’t
what she seems. The pursuit of Green leads across generations,
a trail of deception and murder that began with a woman’s
fall from a Bronx rooftop almost fifty years earlier.
Barkley’s
odyssey finally brings him to the door of a retired detective
haunted by a case he never solved. Together, the two men seek
justice-and their own renewal. Read
