The Lazarus Directive (The Bulldog files Book 2)

A courier is dead. A chemist is missing. And somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, someone has built a weapon precise enough to kill a single person in a crowd — and leave nothing behind but a natural cause of death.
Retired Tier One operator turned fishing guide John Roberts thought that chapter of his life was closed. Then a text arrives from a dead man’s phone.

Dr. Michael Holmes didn’t die in that rest-area parking lot in Grants Pass — his death was staged to protect him from the people he’d exposed. Now, working inside an organization that officially doesn’t exist, he’s racing to prove that what killed a courier on a forest road wasn’t an accident of chemistry. It was a targeted assassination weapon, built from a victim’s own DNA, undetectable by any toxicology screen ever designed to find it.
When an EPA official collapses at a public rally in front of two hundred witnesses, his widow is the only person willing to say what everyone else is too careful to admit: that wasn’t a heart attack.

As Roberts is pulled back into a world he swore he’d left behind, his wife becomes a target, a cell moves against his home in the dead of night, and a trail of evidence leads from a small-town sheriff’s office all the way to the floor of Congress.
Some secrets don’t stay buried. Some directives don’t stay dead.

The Lazarus Directive is the explosive sequel to The Exspiravit Protocol — a science-driven techno-thriller about weapons that leave no trace, the people who build them, and the ordinary Americans who refuse to look away.
