Secrets in a Corrupted Society — Dennis K. Hausker

Secrets is written as a page-turner book, mostly in the mystery genre. Lily is a top-tier agent for the CIA, though her husband was told she's an agricultural attache, to explain her overseas missions. Disturbing developments at the office foreshadow developing troubles. When she is suddenly sent on a strange mission starting in Afghanistan with a multinational mixed team, they subsequently are forced to fight for their lives constantly on the run, chased across several continents. Aware of background players, she must cope without the normal support and resources at home. The political decay at home mirrors dangerous turns in society requiring the most extreme of responses. This dystopian view of what can happen to a country gone awry is a consuming story we hopefully never see in reality.
