Synopsis

TWO MEN. ONE EXPLOSIVE SECRET. A LIE POWERFUL ENOUGH TO RESHAPE HISTORY.

In the wake of the JFK assassination, two operatives are drawn into a covert mission designed to avert the unthinkable: a nuclear confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union. The order comes from the highest levels of power. The truth behind the president’s murder must be buried. Everyone connected to the plot must disappear.

For decades, Tony De Castro has lived with the cost.

A Cuban American operative once tasked with helping erase the evidence, Tony is now dying of cancer, slipping in and out of delirium, and haunted by the mission that destroyed his life. Before he dies, he yearns to reconcile with Rachel, the daughter he abandoned when the country he served demanded his silence.

Rachel has built a life without him. Her fiancé, Gabriel, is an investigative reporter who treats the truth as the one non-negotiable in his life. When Gabriel begins looking into Tony’s past, he uncovers a secret capable of shattering the official story of one of America’s defining tragedies. Exposing it could change history. Concealing it may be the only way to protect the woman he loves.

But Tony is not the only one trapped by the lie.

Dimitri Ivanov, a Russian operative on the other side of the cover-up, has not forgotten what they both risked — or what they’re both capable of. He and Tony had once been ordered to eliminate the other. Neither man pulled the trigger. Now the lie they preserved is beginning to surface again.

After Dallas moves beyond the familiar question of who fired the shot and into the wreckage left behind. Blending political intrigue, psychological suspense, and the depth of a literary thriller, it is a story about secrecy, family fracture, moral compromise, and the human cost of protecting a dangerous lie.

A character-driven thriller layered with Cold War tension, plot twists, and psychological intrigue, After Dallas is for readers of John le Carré, Robert Harris, and David Baldacci — and for anyone who has ever wondered what might lie behind the official story.

A murdered president.
A cover-up.
A lie they’d kill to protect.
Everyone paid a price.
