Something's happening in the small town of Bradbury. Something more sinister than the disappearance of the woman the Excoms have been sent to find. Something only they can stop. Ananke, Rosario, Dylan, Liesel, and Ricky have reassembled to undertake their second mission. Seems easy enough: locate the missing woman and be on their way.

They’ve dealt with them all and earned the gratitude of the overlooked and the disadvantaged. But not everyone is happy with their work. After finishing their most recent assignment, they’re rudely awakened in the middle of the night by an explosive situation that changed the team forever. Some may think Ananke and her friends are no longer a threat. Some would be making a mistake. You may knock The Excoms down, but you can never count them out.

With few clues, they must follow a trail that leads from Washington State to Panama and beyond. And when they reach the end, what they find is far beyond anything they ever expected.
