John Dutton’s life hangs in the balance after he witnesses the gruesome death of his uncle, Arizona Senator, Frank Dutton, at the hands of the top assassin of the Quintana Roo cartel.

Unshakable in his quest to keep his family safe, he flees the murder scene and goes on the run. By a twist of fate, he is joined by a classmate and neighbor, Jessica Richards and his teacher, Claire Miller.

Now, the hunt is on and they can trust no one.

FBI Special Agent Zane Gordon followed in his father’s footsteps with one goal in life―to protect his country and keep it free from violence and crime. But the lucrative opioid epidemic has brought the violent Quintana Roo Cartel out of hiding and over the border.

Zane Gordon has a personal score to settle with them—one that has haunted him for years.

While Zane struggles to protect Claire, Jessica, and the Dutton family, the cartel masterminds and wages a campaign so violent that it will go down in history.

Death and destruction threaten to spiral Agent Gordon into a dark abyss of despair but he refuses to quit until John and his family are safe.

How does he anticipate their next move with a mole on the inside? And what price will others pay amid the chaos that explodes around them?

Editor’s Note: Isabel James delves into the world of violent crime and writes with an urgency that makes this volatile tale explode off the pages. A barn burner with a manic pace that will be impossible to put down.

Meet special agent Zane Gordon following on the footsteps of his father working for the FBI.

John Dutton high school senior & captain of a basketball team seems to have everything going for him, until he witnesses his uncle's murder.
The murder was committed by a drugs cartel sending a message. John is forced to go on the run, he finds some people that he can trust & this leads him to agent Gordon.
This was a fast paced story with plenty of twists keeping the reader enthralled, even after finishing it I'm asking myself questions about who was it, when was it though I'm going to have to wait for book 2.
A fantastic start to a new series revolving around agent Gordon, high enjoyable and recommended read.

Wow!!! What an action packed and exhilarating read. So different from their other books. Puts me in mind of Tess Gerritsen novels. Love that the story is set in current events. Very well researched regarding the opioid crisis. I honestly learned several new words. And it doesn't hurt that Zane Gordon is one hot FBI Agent. Looking forward to the next Zane book.

A story-line that pulls you in and takes you on a roller-coaster of intrigue, suspense and terror. The drug market is very real and its tentacles are global. Special agent Zane Gordon, FBI, has experience with major drug lords and the power they wield and the extent they will go to protect their underworld. Zane Gordon fights to protect those close to him, friends and fellow law enforcement that are affected or threatened by the seedy criminal underworld. Definitely a MUST READ.

I love the story. It has the suspense intrigue, and action of a James Patterson story. The only negative thing I found was the appearance of a political agenda.

A fast pace suspense novel that drives home the violence of drug syndicates. No one is safe, not even a young teenager in this race for survival.
Zane Gordon has a battle on his hands but a fatal disaster and a mole in the FBI make his task even more difficult.
A riveting start to a suspenseful suspense series.

This book definitely had me in the edge of my seat. So many times I wanted I read ahead to see what was going to happen. FBI agent Zane Gordon has had a connection with major drug lords for as long as he can remember. He will do all he can to protect those close to him and effected by these criminals. Can’t wait for the next one. A definite must read.
