This dark new world order is covert, attempting to shape the states to their own dark designs. Jake Strait is something between a detective and a mercenary, and much more. The kids are scared of him and call his kind bogeymen. He takes on everything except for political jobs. But in this novel, Jake slowly becomes embroiled within a plot that twists and turns until the very end -- and Jake unwittingly finds himself becoming a leader of a resistance group. --Michael and Angela Goodwin« less
