Fortunes Of A Misbegotten War

Alden Acres promised privacy and extreme comfort to a select group of very wealthy high-achievement retirees, among them a billionaire recluse, a man that weighs rather than counts his money, an assassin and a woman obsessed with coffins. For Graham Dodd, it also offered a possible cure for a dispirited marriage and a retirement that wasn?t quite working out. But he becomes an unwilling discoverer of past crimes, dirty little secrets and festering grudges, an unstable cauldron of human faults that readily translates into murder and betrayals both large and small.Graham keeps stumbling across crime scenes at Alden Acres. When he allies with Renee Delgado, a senior Treasury investigator and reluctant member of the new Republican administration, the seemingly unrelated felonies begin to form a sinister whole, one that begins with Afghanistan in the helter-skelter days after nine-eleven, leads to the Trump White House in Washington D.C., and just might involve Graham?s wife Valerie. Graham and Renee solve small puzzles, only to find larger mysteries; discover ordinary victims who are simultaneously master criminals; identify killers only to find themselves in the crosshairs. And when there are no more mysteries to solve, they find that they are required to make the most difficult choice of all.
