Known by his alias; Oliver Stone; John Carr is the most wanted man in America. With two pulls of the trigger; the men who hid the truth of Stone's past and kept him in the shadows were finally silenced. But Stone's freedom has come at a steep price; the assassinations he carried out have prompted the highest levels of the United States Government to unleash a massive manhunt. Joe Knox is leading the charge; but his superiors aren't telling him everything there is to know about his quarry-and their hidden agendas are just as dangerous as the killer he's trying to catch. Meanwhile; with their friend and unofficial leader in hiding; the members of the Camel Club must fend for themselves; even as they try to protect him. As Knox closes in; Stone's flight from the demons of his past will take him far from Washington; D.C.; to the coal-mining town of Devine; Virginia-and headlong into a confrontation every bit as lethal as the one he is trying to escape.
