We've all heard of J. Edgar Hoover's secret files and the dirt trapped within, but who expects to uncover any? Kyle Mills's newest tale begins with this premise and proceeds apace to murder, political intrigue, and general mayhem. Mark Beamon, an FBI agent with ethics and a burning drive to set things right, has been hired to find the "uncovered" file, and the thief who is now dead and his girlfriend. John Shea, veteran narrator and performer, keeps it all together in this global jaunt and death-defying manhunt for the truth or its ultimate destruction. Shea's captivating vocal performance keeps up with the disjointed pieces of the abridged plot until they seamlessly flow together for a shocking, politically explosive conclusion.
