Special Agent in Charge David Stilley should've been enjoying a Hall of Fame induction. Instead, an old teammate's plea unravels into an international manhunt: a junior associate's phantom past, Interpol's seized bills of lading, and a British logistics front traceable to terrorist arsenals. Stilley drags his Behavioral Analysis Unit into territory it was never meant to police—sleeper agents, cartel connectors, and a private security firm with too many secrets.

As Evan Silver runs across America and an SVR handler scrambles, Stilley juggles optics, politics, and the one man who might know everything: Andrew Hedley. With Counter Terrorism, Interpol, and the White House circling, Stilley must pull a web of lies apart without losing the witnesses—or his moral footing.

Who can he trust: the man who begged for help at lunch, the kid who lied about his birth, or the handler who claims innocence? The answer will cost lives—maybe his own.
