Jack Dana, a star student at Yale, joins the military after 9/11—only to have sniper fire cut short his career as a Marine Corps infantry officer. While recovering at Walter Reed Hospital, he begins to write a novel about his wartime experience. Jack’s uncle Harry, a surrogate father and partner at a leading New York law firm, helps Jack secure a publisher. Jack is thrilled when his book becomes a huge success. But after a celebratory trip to South America, Jack returns home to learn some shocking news: Uncle Harry is dead, hanged in his Sag Harbor summer home. Horrified and incredulous, Jack digs into the facts surrounding the tragedy and believes that his uncle’s death was no suicide. Delays of law are not for Jack so he takes matters into his own hands—on a dangerous journey of justice and revenge.
