Eight years have passed since that horrific day, and the memories still haunt Wes’s mind. It seems just like yesterday that he was helping the President into his limousine, such a simple task with such grave consequences. Each time he looks into a mirror it all comes rushing back . . . the pain, the suffering, and the loss, all fresh as it plays out in his mind’s eye. Then the unexpected occurs, he sees Ron Boyle alive and well in Malaysia. He questions whether his eyes are playing tricks on him, for he himself witnessed him being gunned down on that terrible day. With Ron's re-appearance, he wonders what else he could have been mistaken about seeing. Questions mount and plague his thoughts; each one deserves an answer but at what cost to turn back the clock to days gone by?

This is the first Brad Meltzer book I have experienced, but it surely will not be my last! I was overwhelmed with the talent this author so effortlessly displayed. He has done such an outstanding job of researching his characters that they seem to be lifelike, rather than a work of fiction. The political fact this book reveals is astonishing; it was as though I was watching it from high atop the Capital's steps. This book is loaded with a unique mystery that involves Thomas Jefferson and the Masons. Fans will be delighted with this wonderful offering. Very highly recommended.
