Publisher's Synopsis
"You do what you have to do."As disgraced IRA soldier Siobhan Dochartaigh, Mai Fisher's brief contact with a man who piqued her interest at the FBI standoff at Killeen, Texas, wasn't enough to convince her he's the one planning revenge for the deaths of the People of the Eternal Light. She needs to encounter him again--and soon. Alexei Bukharin continues to look for the elusive paramilitary compound Patriot City and is stymied until a chance meeting gives him a lead...and something more, something The Directorate stopped him from doing years ago: hunting the Nazis who executed his father and siblings at Stalingrad.John Thomas Carroll's future isn't quite so dark when he's with Siobhan, but while his feelings for her deepen, he and his two best friends begin accumulating the supplies for a plan that may have been in the making long before Killeen provided an excuse. Mai wonders if she was wrong about Carroll. All she sees is a young man with a soft spot for children but who is disgruntled with the government. Unless she finds something concrete, Carroll is a dead end. As Sergei in Patriot City, Alexei, too, has no tangible evidence anyone is planning an act of terror. The proof is likely on a computer, whose access is limited, and he plots how to get to it and to one of the men who rendered him fatherless. But also undercover in Patriot City is ATF agent Karen Wolfe, aka Charlene Anderson. "Assigned" to Sergei to make the next generation of Aryan warriors, Karen will do what she has to do to survive.
