The explosive new thriller from Oliver North, who stormed bestseller lists nationwide with his disarmingly authentic military novel Heroes Proved, is a gripping, non-stop tale that could only be written by someone who has "been there, done that."
Veteran undercover FBI agent Jake Kruse is investigating a smuggling ring in southern California when his assignment is cut short. A prominent criminal defense attorney wants to hire Jake on another kind of mission: to kill the daughter of a local crime boss.
What began as a "contract killing" soon captures the attention of the CIA, the U.S. Secret Service, and high-level officials in Washington. The undercover agent is plunged into a deadly underworld of North Korean espionage, Hezbollah terror and the sinister deception Iran uses to acquire nuclear weapons. Caught in a web of international intrigue that goes to the top of the U.S. government, Kruse is forced to confront the ultimate moral quandary: doing what’s right when everything seems wrong.
His New York Times bestseller Heroes Proved was praised by Sean Hannity as "a heart-thumping ‘must-read’ for every American" and as "inspiring truth in the form of a novel" by U.S. Army Lieutenant General William "Jerry" Boykin, a founding member of Delta Force.
Now, national security expert and decorated war hero Oliver North and former U.S. Marine and FBI undercover agent Bob Hamer bring their real-life experience to this pulse-pounding tale of international intrigue and down-to-the-wire suspense. They say it’s fiction. But it’s all too real.

He came here just before I was born, working for a unified Korean trade delegation. I still have family in North Korea. Even though I’m a U.S. citizen I got a Korean visa through them.” Gabe wasn’t sure they would buy the legend the CIA created, but if they stopped beating him long enough to do an Internet search of immigration regulations and a government

that he had taken over as the CEO of a company called Centurion Solutions Group. But other than hearing about CSG being awarded some classified contracts with CIA, NSA, DIA, and the FBI, Jake didn’t really know much about the company’s business. In response to the general’s “you with me?” query, Jake responded, “Yes, sir.” Newman continued: “You know about Gabe?” “Yes, sir.” “Have the people you’re working for told you the op you are on is being shut down?” “I was told just a few minutes ago
virgins await.” “So you think he’s ready to martyr himself?” asked Trey. “No, but a terrorist cell can be very forgiving if he’s putting in work. Financial success can trump martyrdom,” said Brian. “What about Candy?” asked Jake. “Squeaky clean. She has a brother upstate in Folsom but she has no convictions, no arrests,” said Brian. “Does that make her approachable?” “That’s a tough call. If she knows anything she might be willing to talk, assuming she thought as much about Tommy as he did
