About Resilient: The McGowan Collection Trilogy (The McGowan Collection Series) (Unabridged)

It was not only a season of change for them but a test of their resilience. Bruce McGowan, the president's pick for the National Security Advisor, had stepped away from his high-ranking position after a short stint, finding it was more of a political office than he anticipated. Atticus Steed, who had taken over the role of the director of the covert counter-terrorist team, Terminus, was on the cusp of resigning to try to salvage his marriage. Because he found himself away from home and in harm's way too often, his wife, Maria, had filed for divorce. Lastly, McGowan's daughter, Caroline, a special agent for twenty years with the FBI, had decided to retire when her fiancée broke their engagement, he refusing to move from his cushy attorney position in Denver to Washington, D.C. Caroline then subsequently applied to and was accepted into the West Virginia State Police Violent Crime Task Force, which meant she was ready to continue in law enforcement, only at the state level. Fate had dealt the three of them some serious life changes. However, at the same time, each of them had been handed a mission by their higher-ups that would help make their transitions more palatable. Bruce was taking on a troop of Chinese spies in Montana who had crossed the Canadian-U.S. border illegally; Atticus Steed was leading his team on a drug cartel and human trafficking case in New Mexico; Caroline McGowan was in a rural West Virginia town investigating a devil cult that had just crucified a conservative church pastor. It was a Fall to remember, but would it prove to be one that would bring angst or fulfillment to the lives of three connected professionals? Written as a trilogy, the McGowan saga continues.
