The President exposed him
Now his enemies can identify him—and they want him dead
Garris Kelley is a covert CIA operative—until his identity is blown on social media after taking down a cartel kingpin. Overnight, he goes from invisible to hunted.
When a mass shooting erupts on Portland’s MAX train, Kelley moves fast. Amid the chaos, he finds a clue no one else sees.
It leads to Traughber City—quiet Oregon cowboy country. No obvious threat.
But nothing about it is random.
A federal investigation is already circling—off the books and asking the wrong questions.
A militia is quietly building power.
And someone is pulling the strings behind it all—someone who planned the attack down to the second.
Now Kelley is being maneuvered into position.
Set up to take the fall.
If he walks away, innocent people die.
If he stays, he risks everything.
Because the shooting on the train wasn’t the end.
