Alan Brooks has thrown caution to the West Texas wind to launch a business that could make him a ton of money and have a significant impact on the world. His money-making scheme, however, has multiple hitches. One: Will it even work? Two: If it does work, is it legal? Three: Are the security risks too overwhelming? Four: Are the advancements he wants to make in the world even remotely possible? Alan Brooks has a lot of high-stakes balls in the air, and he knows he's in over his head. When he enlists the aid of his old friend retired army intelligence officer, Mary Jo Thibodaux, things start moving at incredible speed and in intriguing directions. Not only is the captivating Major Thibodaux, whom we first met in Tom Lawrence's first novel, Jake's Revenge, beautiful and smart, but she brings an unusual set of skills to the party. She's deadly and unremorseful.
