Burning Cross

They made him a message. Now, Colton Cross is sending one back.

When civil rights attorney Samuel Copper is lynched in the heart of Washington, D.C., his murder is staged to instill fear, his body marked with a name few recognize-Sons of Glory. To the public, it's a hate crime. To those in power, it's a warning. But to Colton Cross, it's an open contract.

A former Marine and elite assassin, Cross doesn't take jobs lightly. But when his latest target is Congressman Richard Hawthorne Jr., a man on the brink of securing the presidency through deception, backroom deals, and a secret network of extremists, the stakes have never been higher. Hawthorne's campaign is built on carefully crafted lies, his power protected by men willing to kill to keep the truth buried. But Copper's murder wasn't just a message-it was a mistake.

As Cross infiltrates a conspiracy reaching the highest levels of government, he knows there's no turning back. Every lead brings him closer to the truth, but also closer to exposure. His target is powerful. His enemies are watching. And in a game where loyalty is a currency and truth is expendable, failure means death.

With time running out and the future of the country at stake, Cross must decide how far he's willing to go-and how many bodies he's willing to drop-to stop a man who's already proven he'll do whatever it takes to win.

Fans of David Baldacci, Vince Flynn, and Mark Greaney will be hooked from the first explosive chapter of Burning Cross-a relentless, high-stakes thriller of power, deception, and justice delivered the hard way.
