A murdered diplomat leads to
...America’s unfinished war.

As FBI special agent Jake Maguire rises through the ranks of the Bureau, he finds himself faced with the most challenging case of his career. When a high-ranking diplomat is brutally assassinated in front of Jake, he resolves to learn the identity of the killer and learn the reason behind the death.

As he delves deeper into the investigation, Jake realizes that the assassination is just the tip of the iceberg, and that he must follow a trail that leads him from the United States to Europe and the Far East.

But Jake's pursuit of justice is complicated by the killer who turns on him, the appearance of a mysterious temptress, his own murky past, and the fact that his investigative sidekick and lover is being tortured by a ruthless foreign politician. With the political figure trying to sell off pristine public land for personal profit, Jake must use all of his skills and training to turn the tables on his assailant, right the wrongs of the past, rescue his friend, and return the land to its rightful people.

Will Jake be able to stop the deal and save the day, or will he be outwitted by his cunning adversary? Find out in The Secret War, the heart-pounding new international mystery from Fritz Galt.
