Obsessive and compulsive, she's also the FBI's counter-intelligence expert on domestic terrorism. Brett Garrett is a dishonorably-discharged ex-Navy SEAL coming off a secret opioid addiction. A brusque, fiercely independent operative who refuses to play by the rules, the seasoned pro is now a gun for hire, working as a security contractor in Eastern Europe.
