David Stilley thought lunch with an old lacrosse teammate would be a nostalgic break in an otherwise ordinary FBI day. Instead, Roger Hammond walks him into a conspiracy involving illegal weapons, a missing employee, and a Russian sleeper agent hidden in plain sight.
As Stilley and his BAU team follow the trail from Quantico to New York, Seattle, and the Caribbean, the case keeps mutating. Cartel assassins, vanished executives, and a handler inside the Russian network all point to one terrifying truth: Hammond International has become the center of a war no one saw coming.
But the deeper Stilley digs, the uglier it gets. If Hammond is lying, he's a traitor. If he's not, then someone is willing to kill to keep the truth buried. And when the FBI starts closing in, the only question left is who will survive long enough to tell what really happened.
