A deadly drug named the Widowmaker. A US government cover-up. A Russian operation known only as Falcon.
In this high-stakes political thriller, DEA covert operative Jason Kraft uncovers a deadly new street drug-a lethal oxycodone and fentanyl combination disguised as ordinary pain pills. When a truck accident in South Carolina exposes the deadly drug's origin, Kraft's investigation quickly runs into an unexpected barrier: federal authorities order the DEA to halt all inquiries under the claim of "national security."
Refusing to abandon a case that is already claiming lives across the East Coast, Kraft quietly launches an unsanctioned investigation with newly promoted covert agent Jackie Turney. As the two agents dig deeper, they uncover a widening conspiracy that stretches from cartel laboratories in Mexico to the highest levels of power in Washington-and evidence of a covert Russian government operation known only as "Falcon."
With time running out and the death toll rising, Kraft must decide how far he is willing to go to expose the truth behind a drug known on the street as The Widowmaker-and the secret operation determined to keep it hidden.
