When investigative journalist Daniel Cheras begins looking into the suspicious deaths of Anaheim city councilmen, he uncovers something far more sinister than political corruption and murder. As Chinese military operatives infiltrate American soil and a mysterious tech billionaire tightens his grip on those closest to Daniel, the veteran reporter finds himself in a deadly game where the players include the FBI, corporate titans, and foreign assassins tasked to silence him before he can reveal the truth.
Twenty-five years ago, a secret government facility conducted horrific experiments on children with extraordinary abilities. The government suspects the enigmatic Calvin Mayer, who has risen to become one of the world's most powerful men, has ties too close to ignore to those dreadful experiments.
Daniel's corruption investigation draws him deeper into a web of conspiracy that threatens not only his career but his family. His son Jude abandons medical school to work for Mayer, severing ties with his parents. His wife Megan faces a devastating diagnosis. And when an FBI task force led by Daniel's old Army buddy, Agent Lou Edison, ropes him into their parallel investigation, Daniel realizes they are chasing the same case and the same dangerous man.
From the corridors of power in Washington D.C. to the tech campuses of Southern California, from military black ops to boardroom machinations, Dawn of the Lion delivers a pulse-pounding thriller where loyalty is tested, secrets kill, and one man's search for truth exposes a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of American power.
If you enjoyed The Bourne Identity, The Firm, and Brad Thor's Scot Harvath series, you'll love Dawn of the Lion.
