We don't know when the terrorists will strike, we don't know where, and we don't know how... we only know they will!

After waiting for years, patiently and silently, the sleeping cells awaken. Their attacks are simple, yet devastating. The government, anticipating weapons of mass destruction, is unable to protect its citizens from the terror unleashed by the enemy. America's false sense of security, fostered during the years following 9/11, is shattered.

Dyan Galloway, a young FBI analyst working in the Syracuse field office, is the author of a report describing the unsophisticated, low-cost tactics terrorists will use in their next wave of attacks on American soil. Her prophecies throw her into the middle of the power and politics of Washington, D.C. as she tries to predict, then stop, the next attack.

A terrorized nation is brought to its knees as a helpless government searches for a scapegoat and finds a naive Galloway to blame for its ineptitude. Reassigned to central New York she uncovers a secret kept hidden there for over forty years. It is a secret that will make our government an accomplice to the ultimate act of terror against itself.

In his debut novel The Kept Secret, Stan Wilczek Jr. has created a tightly plotted, fast moving, brilliantly intriguing tale so realistic, it could be a harbinger of tomorrow's headlines. A gripping page turner, you won't be able to put it down.
