Publisher Description:

What if YOU held the power to manipulate the well-being or the demise of many?

Joe Tenning thought he knew his father…he was wrong.

After 25 years of estrangement, Joe is unexpectedly summoned to the nursing home bedside of Charles Tenning. He reluctantly drives sixteen hours to a small Texas town to have closure on his dysfunctional parental relationship.

The reunion turns heated after Charles requests that Joe retrieve his journals located in his house a mile away. When Joe returns, he finds his father’s lifeless body. Foul play is suspect and he is suddenly entangled in unraveling a web of secrets about his father’s bizarre covert actions.

Joe accepts the help of Dr. Lillian Kent who has her own brand of patient care. Soon it becomes apparent that someone else is also seeking to learn more about his father’s past actions.

He is not Joe’s friend.

Despite the desire to return home, Joe now must wrestle with the disturbing consequences of his father’s work on himself, his loved ones, and the lives of thousands more.

If he does not, many more could die.
