From bestselling author J. B. Turner comes a thrilling mission for Jon Reznick. A top CIA officer locked in a psychiatric ward. A false flag operation targeting American lives. A conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of government.

Black-ops specialist Jon Reznick is in New Orleans when he gets an urgent call. Stephen Leahy, a senior CIA operations director, is being held in a psychiatric hospital in Maryland—and he says he has uncovered a chilling government plan.

The operation: stage attacks on American oil companies in Guyana, blame Venezuela’s government, and launch an invasion to seize their vast oil reserves.

Reznick is skeptical—until Leahy’s father mysteriously drowns after learning the truth. Now, with assassins closing in and time running out, Reznick must expose the conspiracy before hundreds of innocent Americans are sacrificed for a lie.

In Washington, the truth is the most dangerous weapon of all. But Washington hasn’t met Jon Reznick—and he’s about to become their worst nightmare.
