President Reagan has been shot and is recovering in hospital. The nation holds its breath. John Hinckley Jr. is arrested and subsequently charged and found guilty. The basic facts have been released to the public, but there are still many details that need to be investigated behind the scenes. A small, independent Secret Service unit have been formed and given the task of tying up all the loose ends and checking that a threat no longer exists. 

Was the whole thing planned by the KGB or the Russian Mafia? Did Hinckley act alone or was it an inside job? 

The painstaking and revealing procedures used by a Secret Service unit to uncover the truth about the assassination attempt. No perfect heroes. No supermen. Real agents with human flaws who do not always get it right and sometimes rely on luck and intuition to get the job done. You may not like the people who do these jobs or the way they do them, but you just need to know that they do them right and for the good of the country. 

The follow-up to his #1 bestseller, The German Connection, Ben Goetz publishes his first full-length novel in the True Fiction series set in the 1980s. A must for anyone into Reagan-era nostalgia and a world still in the grip of the cold war.
