For Frank, the men of Charlemagne have become the ultimate houseguests from hell. Mack offers Frank’s subordinate, Steve Donovan, a chance to join the team after the fallout of a recent disaster puts his young family at risk. As Frank watches Steve turn into a killer and his wife and daughter discover what his thirty-year career has been all about, he helps the team save the lives of Steve’s family while dreading the danger to his own. Can Frank trust anyone in his immediate circle? Brevet Wedge is the third novel in K.A.
