Description

When a CIA informant is tortured and killed in Tehran after exposing corruption tied to an American contractor, congressional investigator Joe DeMarco is drawn into a dangerous effort to uncover the source of the leak. Working alongside intelligence operatives, DeMarco follows a trail that leads to a jailed journalist whose past connection to the victim could bring the entire investigation—and DeMarco’s own operation—crashing down. Blending political intrigue, international espionage, and moral ambiguity, the novel explores the uneasy intersection of power, loyalty, and justice.
