Publisher's Synopsis
Et Omnia Recta--to make things right.
In the late 1800s, a secret society is formed by a captain from Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders with the support of the nation's leading industrialists and bankers. Over a century later, the tradition continues, in the same saloons and boardrooms of New York City where it all began.
In this crime thriller, where history and current events unite, Woodbury Kane, Jacob Riis, and Roosevelt himself fight the tyranny of Tammany Hall in the first mission of the Volunteers during the turn of the last century.
In today's New York, the descendants of the Volunteers recruit Annie Falcone, a New York police officer, who takes the oath: Et Omnia Recta. She is to provide protection to one man, America's top technological mind, from his longtime adversary, Sheng, China's most brutal hacker.
Annie is unaware that she's merely a decoy to draw Sheng out for the hit squad that was sent ahead of her. Her instincts alone will be the force behind the success or failure of the mission.
Like so many other Volunteers before her, Annie's survival depends upon her courage, her skill, and her DRIVE.
