An FBI agent risks it all to stop a far-reaching conspiracy in a propulsive thriller by Steven Konkoly, the USA Today bestselling author of A Hired Kill. FBI agent Garrett Mann is running out of time. His task force, ARTEMIS, is on the verge of disbandment, but he’s uncovered a sinister plot that could swing the upcoming presidential election. With a trail leading from Washington, DC, to rural Montana and finally to Tampa, Florida, Mann assembles a team of misfits and black-ops specialists to take on a shadowy conspiracy involving the CIA, a covert government contractor, and a third-party political movement. As a hurricane bears down on Florida, Mann and his team launch a desperate raid on a yacht hiding secrets that could destroy everything. With the clock ticking and enemies closing in from all sides, they must secure crucial evidence before it’s too late. In this heart-pounding finale to the Garrett Mann series, the stakes have never been higher, and the cost of failure could be the very future of the nation itself.
