About This Book

The final confrontation has arrived. After four books of uncovering corruption, conspiracy, and betrayal at the highest levels of government, Aidan Nolan faces his ultimate test. The shadow organization that has manipulated American politics for decades is making its final move, and the very survival of democracy hangs in the balance.

As civil unrest spreads across the nation and international allies question America's reliability, Aidan must choose between exposing the truth and preserving the stability of the country he's sworn to protect. But in a world where the cure might be worse than the disease, what does it mean to save America?

American Reckoning brings The Janus Legacy series to its explosive conclusion, exploring the ultimate question: Can a democracy survive the revelation of its own corruption? As Aidan confronts the architects of America's decline, he must decide whether some truths are too dangerous to reveal, even if hiding them perpetuates the very system he's fought to destroy.

This climactic thriller combines political intrigue with moral philosophy, asking whether the ends can ever justify the means when the stakes are the soul of a nation. As America faces its reckoning, readers will be forced to confront uncomfortable truths about power, corruption, and the price of freedom in the modern world.

Excerpt

"The dead drop was supposed to be routine—a simple exchange of intelligence that happened thousands of times across the globe every day. But as Aidan Nolan watched the surveillance footage for the third time, he knew that nothing about this operation had been routine. Someone had been watching the watchers, and now three good agents were dead because of it."
