The Hawk: Book one of the Project Veil Series

By Samantha Trudell

When truth becomes a target, survival is the only defense.

Detective Adam Cross thought the nightmare ended when the government shut down Project Redtail, a covert program linked to six brutal murders. But when a seventh attempt is thwarted-on the eve of his congressional testimony-it becomes clear the conspiracy is still alive.

Someone is tying up loose ends.
Someone who knows Adam's every move.
Someone who believes he should have died five years ago... with his brother.

As Adam teams up with cyber analyst Emily Navarro and investigative journalist Chris Martinez, they uncover hidden evidence deposited by a murdered whistleblower. A hawk feather-left behind at each crime scene-marks the killer's calling card. But the predator is no longer hunting the innocent... he's hunting those who uncovered the truth.

To expose the operation, Adam must risk everything: his career, his closest allies, and the secret that has haunted him since Nate's death. But when the enemy controls the narrative-and the surveillance-trust becomes deadly.

Some secrets have wings.
Some won't stay buried.
And some will kill to remain in the shadows.

Perfect for fans of Jack Carr, Michael Connelly, and Tom Clancy, The Hawk delivers gripping psychological suspense, relentless pacing, and a conspiracy that claws deeper with every page.
