Overview

For over a decade, Alex Toles has walked the fine line between shadow and light, working within the fringes of National Intelligence to expose the roots of The Collaborative—a covert organization of military, political, and corporate leaders whose true agenda remains shrouded in mystery. A recent attack on Poland’s power grid and simultaneous assassination attempts on the American president and German Chancellor have sent shockwaves around the globe, escalating tensions to a boiling point.

Now serving as the Deputy National Security Adviser to President Candace Reid, Alex is more vigilant than ever, with her wife, Cassidy, acting as the president’s press secretary. As they navigate the treacherous waters of global politics, Alex works beside her old adversary-turned-friend, Claire Brackett. Together, they unravel a web of deceit stretching back over seventy-five years—a conspiracy threatening their lives and the fabric of global stability.

The stakes are raised higher with the reappearance of Cassidy and Claire’s enigmatic father, Jim McCollum, whose past may hold the key to stopping The Collaborative once and for all. But as Alex delves deeper into the secrets that could secure their future, she must also balance the growing demands of her family with the ever-present dangers of her profession. In a world where allegiances are fragile, and enemies lurk in every shadow, Alex is reminded that, for some, Concealment is the ultimate weapon.

Concealment is the gripping eighth installment in the Alex and Cassidy political thriller series, where espionage, family, and loyalty collide in a high-stakes battle against an unseen enemy.
