In this gamble, more than a few poker chips are at stake. When an
Army Air Force Major vanishes from his Top Secret job at the Fort
Worth airbase in the summer of 1947, down-on-his-luck former Ranger
Jefferson Sharp is hired to find him, because the Major owes a
sizable gambling debt to a local mobster. The search takes Sharp
from the hideaway 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. Lethal operatives and an opaque
military bureaucracy stand in his way, but when he finds an
otherworldly clue and learns President Truman is creating a new
Central Intelligence Agency and splitting the Air Force from the
Army, Sharp begins to connect dots. And those dots draw a straight
line to a conspiracy aiming to cover up a secret that is out of
this world?literally so.
