(from the publisher): FBI agent Puller Monk is losing his mind.
His father passed away six months ago and left him a predisposition for
Alzheimer's. Add to that a stolen painting and a lethal American spy
raised by the North Koreans and Monk's life just got a lot more
complicated.
Suddenly his prospects brighten: at a party thrown by a well connected
billionaire, Monk sees the missing painting. But a call to his partner
about his discovery leads to the man's suicide, reopening a painful
internal investigation of three years ago. Now Monk has nowhere left to
turn. His employers at the FBI don't trust him and a sleeper spy is
trying to kill him to keep him from learning a lethal secret.
A gambling man with a jones for adrenaline, Monk lives for this moment:
it's time to go rogue, to work in the shadows, to follow his own
"quantico rules". But with his failing mind and his demons close at his
heels, can he even trust himself?
