He managed to keep his job—now it may cost his life. When three men brandishing AR-15s burst into his newsroom, can a small-town editor discover what’s really going on before the night erupts into murder?

Becket was already having a bad day. His publisher wants to fire him. His staff lives in dread of the next layoff. And the woman he loves may be leaving before he can tell her how he feels. Then the shooting starts. The gunmen demand the newspaper print a manifesto reeking of conspiracy theories—or they will kill everyone.

With time running out, Becket does what he must to keep his team alive. But nothing is how it first appeared. Allies turn on each other, enemies find common ground, and one man’s roiling rage is primed to explode into violence. Can Becket outwit his foes and unpeel the mystery over their motives to save those he loves?
