Cal Brink has spent twenty-four years learning to read people, properties, and situations that others walk away from. As a Kansas City real estate agent specializing in distressed properties, he knows that every house has a history. He just never expected one of them to have his.

When a sledgehammer reveals a silver box hidden inside a basement wall, Cal's carefully rebuilt life begins to unravel in ways that connect a 2010 closing table to a surveillance job he did in Washington DC more than twenty years earlier.

Notice of Assignment, the first Cal Brink thriller, arrives this fall.
