A novel by

 
 
“On the run from mysterious assailants and an unexpected betrayal from his own father, Luke Preston races to thwart an illicit arms deal that targets the heart of the U.S.”

“Betrayed by family, hunted by terrorists — Luke's toughest choice yet.”

Luke Preston wants answers, and more specifically, he wants to know who's orchestrating attempts on his life. The last twist he anticipates? The involvement of his own flesh and blood.

Ex-military, ex-law enforcement, a grieving widower, and an alienated son. Luke Preston's life has been a series of labels and losses. With no immediate family, no connections tethering him to the world, he's become a shadow taking on covert contracts for the government. But when irregularities arise from his recent assignment, the last thing Luke expects is an interrupting call from his estranged father. It's not a reunion or an olive branch; it's a stark warning: back off and let this mission lie.

The direness of the situation hits home when an explosion decimates his apartment, leaving Luke injured but alive. On the lam and nursing his wounds, he's more determined than ever to get to the bottom of the sinister plot threatening him.

The deeper he delves, the higher the stakes become. After apprehending one of the attackers, Luke uncovers a nefarious arms deal in the works, poised to arm global terrorists with their sights locked onto the U.S. Tangled in this web of deceit is his father, somehow connected or controlled by these very terrorists. The decision he's faced with is gut-wrenching: does he prioritize the family bond that's been strained for years, or does he uphold the vow he took to defend his nation? Choices are a game, and in this lethal one, only one side can be the victor…
