A last minute October surprise to resurrect Senator Robert Fowler's presidential campaign lands Navy SEAL Joe O'Shanick and his close friends Navy SEAL Matt Ramsey and Dr. Christy Tabrizi in prison for crimes they did not commit. They soon realize they have been marked for death in order to keep them from revealing secrets that could end Senator Fowler's political career and put him in prison. Far away from the battlefields of the Middle East and Central America, O'Shanick and Ramsey find themselves in an entirely different kind of war, a high stakes political war of treachery, betrayal, and death, with no rules of engagement.
