Assistant U.S. Attorney Wayne Lott returns to a political arena where the stakes are higher than ever. Trust is built and betrayed, political careers lie in ruin, and a countywide conspiracy holds a small Southern town in its grip. An FBI investigation finds that what seems like a political power play on the surface goes deeper to involve international drug smuggling, kidnapping, and racketeering. With lives, potential fortunes, and freedom on the line, justice is only the first casualty.
