"Ten years since the events of The First Order, Sam Capra (focused more on being a suburban dad and a businessman than a "spy on call") has moved his son Daniel to Austin, and continued to run his collection of bars and nightclubs around the world. He's had no contact with his former partner Mila, or anyone he worked with at the now disbanded independent espionage group, The Round Table. One day, he gets a phone call he never expected: Marcus Bolt is missing. Bolt was the last American traitor, who had turned over allied agent names and military secrets to the Russians. He fled when he was discovered, but now a trusted source inside Russia tells the CIA that Marcus Bolt has vanished from Moscow-a shattering development that sparks an international manhunt. Sam is charged with making contact with Bolt's abandoned American daughter, Amanda, determining if she's had any contact with her father, and discovering the reason behind what he did thirty years ago and determine what he's planning now. And in the unlikely event Marcus shows up: capture him. But as the hunt for Bolt narrows, Daniel is captured, and Sam, working with his former partner Mila, must save both from a rising threat born of long ago secrets-one that could change his life forever"--

The American Revolution was not inevitable, nor was it a unanimous cause. It pitted neighbors against one another, as loyalists and colonial rebels faced off for their lives and futures. Through the remarkable lives of the first Americans, this book reveals the contentious arguments that turned friends into foes and the land into a war zone.

With the patriots grappling to create a government, one for and by the people, the origin story of the United States of America was only starting to be written
