The Austin Files Book 3

Jericho Road is the story of 17-year-old Austin Pierce, his girlfriend Veronica, and his best friend Rico. The teens were recruited by their handler, a CIA agent named Konstantine, to infiltrate a murderous Mexican street gang. Tragically, Rico is now missing and presumed dead. Despite this, Austin refuses to believe that his friend is truly gone and is willing to do whatever it takes to find him. This is where our story begins.

Doing "anything" to locate Rico, however, proves to be a significant challenge for Austin, as he is a natural rule follower. Moreover, the lines become blurred as Austin finds himself unsure of who he can trust, even questioning the loyalty of his own girlfriend, Veronica.

The narrative unfolds across New York City, Washington, D.C., and the surrounding suburbs. As the teens are forced to flee from one city to the next, they must carefully discern where to place their trust. Regrettably, the consequences of their decisions can be catastrophic.

Throughout this gripping tale, Austin's unwavering determination to uncover the truth about his friend's disappearance is juxtaposed against his inherent struggle to navigate the moral ambiguity of the situation. The story explores the delicate balance between following one's principles and making difficult choices in the face of uncertainty and danger.
