NYPD Detective Nicola Cortese, veteran of three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, is leading a routine drug bust at a warehouse in the Bronx, but the SWAT team Commander pulls rank and starts a firefight that gets Cortese?s partner killed.� The tragedy triggers combat flashbacks, sleepless nights with cold sweats, nightmares, and violent outbursts during which he assaults fellow officers.� He is demoted and transferred to a desk job in Operations.� For months, all his appeals are denied.� But when a new Precinct Commander returns him to active duty, he is elated -- until he?s told Captain Chase expects him to act out again and get kicked off the Force.�His first case, a B & E homicide, leads him to uncover an international conspiracy that is using a genetically engineered seed to take control of the world?s wheat.� This draws him into deadly conflict with Corporate power backed by US Intelligence.� Haunted by issues from his military past, he must survive attacks by contract mercenaries, neutralize threats to loved ones, prove his innocence when framed for a Capital Crime and unravel the Stealth Seed Agenda.� He has an ally, a therapist who is also a Marine, but can they clear up his symptoms before it?s too late?�
