In this high-stakes gamble, the stakes are significantly higher than a few poker chips. When an Army Air Force Major vanishes from his Top Secret job at the Fort Worth airbase in the summer of 1947, Jefferson Sharp, a former Ranger, is hired to locate him. The Major owes a substantial gambling debt to a local mobster, making it crucial to find him. Sharp's search takes him from the hidden poker rooms of Fort Worth's Thunder Road to the barren ranch lands of New Mexico, to secret facilities under construction in the Nevada desert.

Along the way, he encounters lethal operatives and an opaque military bureaucracy that pose obstacles to his mission. However, when Sharp discovers an otherworldly clue and learns that President Truman is creating a new Central Intelligence Agency and splitting the Air Force from the Army, he begins to connect the dots. These dots lead him to a conspiracy that aims to cover up a secret that is literally out of this world.

The stakes have never been higher, and Sharp must navigate through treacherous waters to uncover the truth before it's too late. This is a thrilling adventure that will keep readers on the edge of their seats as they unravel the mysteries surrounding the Major's disappearance and the conspiracy that threatens to shake the foundations of the nation.
