Synopsis

Atlanta: July 1939

“Let me get this straight. The Jewish Welfare Alliance of New York is hiring me to protect these Nazis?”
“Yes, Mr. Morgan, that is exactly what we are doing.”

While the world holds its breath, on the brink of war, Mark Morgan is just trying to survive.

Broke, divorced, and disgraced, Mark takes a job that seems too good to be true. A mysterious Rabbi pays him a fortune in cash to protect a visiting delegation of German Baptists. While odd, it's a simple job. Simple until the threats turn real, the police turn brutal, and the bodies start piling up.

As Atlanta bakes under the bright July sun, Mark plunges into darkness. Entering a shadowy world of Klansmen, corrupt police, and spies, he uncovers a sinister plot to twist American politics. If the scheme succeeds, fascism will gain a firm foothold in the United States.

Hunted by a phantom killer and suspected by the authorities of murder, Mark's cynical commitment to neutrality is the only thing he has left. But in a city where no one is who they seem, neutrality may be the most dangerous choice of all.

A crime and espionage thriller in the tradition of Joseph Kanon, Philip Kerr, Robert Olen Butler, and Alan Furst, Neutrality Act takes readers on a thrilling adventure set within a historically accurate context.
