Wilder Rhodes is a retired Navy intelligence officer turned corporate accountant - a quiet man who keeps the peace, drinks the cream coffee without complaining, and has spent twenty-six years building walls between himself and everyone who loves him. He's good at his job, devoted to his kids, and slowly losing his marriage. None of that matters on the morning he discovers three million dollars missing from his company's accounts.
When Wilder reports the fraud, his world collapses. Within days he's arrested, framed, and stripped of everything he's built. His brother Marcus - the loudest, most loyal man he's ever known - is murdered. His wife is photographed through his own window. His teenage son is harassed at school. And the conspiracy reaches further than a single embezzler: all the way back to a Kuwait ambush in 1991 that killed three of Wilder's men and was buried by the same people who are now coming for him.
Standing alone between a powerful enemy and total destruction, Wilder does the one thing he was never built to do - he stops keeping the peace.
The Arrest of Wilder Rhodes is a thriller about integrity, brotherhood, and what it costs a quiet man to finally become loud. For readers who love character-driven suspense with military roots and high personal stakes.
