About this book

A routine calibration at Redstone Arsenal leads systems engineer Ethan Aris to a nerve agent tested on an American town for decades. When his report vanishes and his clearance goes, he has to expose the cover-up before the people behind it silence him.

One anomaly in the soil. One report that vanished. One man who refuses to look away. Systems engineer Ethan Aris thought he was just doing his job at Redstone Arsenal, but a routine calibration uncovers a lethal secret: Agent RX-14, a binary nerve agent tested on an unsuspecting American town for decades.

When Ethan’s internal report is reclassified and his data is wiped, he realizes he is no longer just an engineer—he is a target. From the high-stakes boardrooms of Vantage Defense Systems to the forgotten maintenance tunnels of Building 7742, Ethan must race to expose the Redstone Protocol before the men who sanctioned it silence him forever.

With his clearance revoked, his family in danger, and a ruthless contractor on his heels, Ethan finds unlikely allies in a disgraced toxicologist and a persistent journalist. But the deepest betrayal lies closer to home, and the truth about the 1987 deployments traces back to his own father’s shadow.

Fans of David Baldacci, Michael Crichton, and the political intrigue of Jack Ryan will be gripped by this high-octane corporate thriller. In a world where institutional corruption is the status quo, Ethan Aris must decide if the price of his conscience is worth the loss of his career.

Can one man bring down a military-industrial giant, or will he become just another data point in a deadly experiment? Grab your copy today.
