Ex-CIA operative Matt Gage thought he'd escaped his past.Then a dead tech mogul's daughter walked through his door.Matt Gage isn't in the spy game anymore...these days, he's a private investigator, taking cases that pay the bills and keep him out of trouble. But trouble finds him anyway when Elizabeth Zhou walks into his office, asking him to look into her wealthy father's mysterious death. The cops ruled it a suicide. Elizabeth isn't buying it. Neither is Gage.The closer he looks, the more suspicious the case becomes--police stonewalling, details not adding up, and powerful people who don't like being questioned. Then come the whispers: a secret Chinese intelligence unit operating on U.S. soil, dissidents disappearing without a trace, and a war nobody admits is happening. But it's not just whispers anymore--one of Gage's leads is murdered, and he might be next on the list.From the sunbaked streets of Los Angeles to the neon glow of San Francisco's Chinatown, Gage is running out of time and allies. With every step, he walks closer into a conspiracy hidden far from the public eye, and he soon realizes his CIA past isn't as far behind him as he thought.Perfect for fans of Robert Crais, Michael Connelly, and David Baldacci, this novel delivers gripping action, a razor-sharp plot, and a hero you won't forget.
