Bravery. Honor. Sacrifice. These are more than mere words to former Marine sniper Nathan McBride. He's never backed away from danger, and he's not about to start now, even if it means confronting the cold-blooded interrogator who tortured him to the brink of death more than a decade ago.

When a mutilated body is discovered in a remote Utah lake, it ignites a chain of events that forces Nathan to face a dark chapter from a past he's worked hard to forget. Could his Nicaraguan enemy be active again? On American soil? The evidence is clear, but the stakes are higher than Nathan can know. In a showdown that will test Nathan's understanding of justice and mercy, he'll have to make a life or death decision that has the potential to expose and destroy people at the highest levels of government.
