After returning home from Vietnam, George Wheeler, a former US Army Ranger, is finally putting the pieces of his life back together … until an unexpected letter arrives, threatening the peace he has been fighting so hard to build. George is being recalled to active duty—a shock that immediately places him at odds with everyone around him, including his passionately pro-peace girlfriend. He expects to be sent back to the sweltering, oppressive jungle. Instead, he finds himself joining an undercover cat-and-mouse game designed to disrupt America’s anti-war movement. Leaving behind those he loves in a cloud of lies, George must disappear into the persona of a disgruntled vet intent upon domestic terrorism. As he becomes increasingly entangled in the web of destruction and deceit, however, he begins to suspect there may be more to the mission than meets the eye, leaving him with a desperate decision to make. Will George continue to follow orders, putting innocent lives in the line of fire? Or will he go off the grid, giving up his freedom—and possibly his life—in the name of honor?
