John E. Harper One Hand on the Podium

Annotation

FBI AGENTS TOM MERRITT AND STEVE FRANKANO arent accomplices to murder, but theyre beginning to feel that way. As they watch a young womans mangled body being removed from a landfill, they know who committed the crime. They also know hes an evil man of powera politician who stays beneath the law enforcement radar. And yet they cant arrest and convict him. Because the murderer is also guilty of treason,the US government waits in hopes that thetreason is what will ultimately bring down theman in question, retired US Air Force ColonelSimon Moss. Moss is a charismatic official whois climbing the political ladder. On the side, hesalso selling secrets to the Syrian government. IfMerritt and Frankano bring him in for murder,how will they catch Mosss Syrian connection? Its not an easy war being waged as espionage takes precedence over cold-blooded killing. The FBI watches and waits as more innocent lives are lost, but the law cant wait forever.
