Peter Sutherland never expected to work in the White House Situation Room. The FBI agent has followed every rule, hoping to escape his father's shadow. Years ago, his father was suspected of selling secrets to Russia, a betrayal that destroyed his career and life. Now Peter staffs the night desk, waiting for calls that rarely come. At 1:05 a.m., the phone rings. A terrified woman named Rose says her aunt and uncle have been murdered. Before dying, they gave her a message: OSPREY was right. The call pulls Peter into a conspiracy involving a Russian mole at the highest levels of government. Anyone in the White House could be the traitor. Peter must hunt for the spy while protecting Rose from Russian operatives and corrupt FBI agents. As they dodge assassins and navigate betrayals, Peter faces a choice between following protocol and saving his country.
