One Bullet Changed Everything. One Mission Could Change the World.

CIA headquarters at Langley receives alarming intelligence: assassins from multiple nations have been dispatched to eliminate CIA Agent Dave McClure. Hunted by operatives from China, North Korea, Hezbollah, and Russia, Dave quickly discovers that nowhere is safe. When a Russian sniper targets Dave at his own home, tragedy strikes. As he bends to retrieve his keys during a backyard cookout, a single shot narrowly misses him and instead strikes his young daughter in the shoulder. As Dave and his wife, Karen, race their critically wounded child to the hospital, his mission becomes deeply personal. Consumed by anger and determined to bring those responsible to justice, Dave is willing to cross the Rubicon. His relentless pursuit of the would-be assassin takes him from Oslo, Norway, through the rugged Norwegian peninsula and deep into Russia for a final, violent confrontation. Before the dust can settle, Dave is drawn into another dangerous assignment involving escalating hostile nation activity in Morocco and the Florida Everglades. As international tensions rise and deadly enemies close in, he must rely on every skill he possesses to stay one step ahead in a world where betrayal, deception, and assassination are constant threats. Crossing the Rubicon is a gripping international espionage thriller packed with authentic intelligence tradecraft, relentless action, and geopolitical intrigue that will keep readers turning pages until the very end.
