Price Of Honor

- An FBI Crime Thriller

Bag om Price Of Honor

Book No. 8 of The Bureau, Price of Honor, follows the surviving protagonists through the turbulent years between 1974 and 1983. For the FBI and NYPD's BOSS, pursuit of black militants and white radicals continues, sometimes with fatal results. President Nixon resigns in disgrace, while revelations made in recent years prompt formation of multiple congressional committees probing illegal acts by both the FBI and CIA. Despite cancelation of COINTELPRO before Hoover's death, the Bureau still pursues lawless tactics against perceived subversives, including a new Indian War of sorts against Native American activists. The Vietnam war ends in communist triumph, while two single-term presidents seek to salvage America's image on a global scale. A new grassroots demand for "law and order" at home, with greater security abroad, propels Ronald Reagan into the White House and toward a new would-be assassin's gunsights. Nolan O'Hara leaves the Bureau to cooperate with Senate investigators, while the CIA cleans house of all possible living embarrassments. New frontiers of conflict open in Latin America and the Caribbean.
