After graduating from Arizona State University, Tom Fitzgerald began his career at a large accounting firm. With the itch to be more creative, Tom left accounting to found his own luxury home building business in Phoenix. Even with the success of his company, a creative pining within him remained unfulfilled. After the housing crash of 2009, Tom finally put pen to paper and wrote his first novel, Defector in Our Midst. He spends his time researching his next novel, traveling and spending time with his five children in Arizona.

When Hitler ordered the total annihilation of the small village of Lidice, Czechoslovakia on June 10, 1942, a pair of newborn twin girls were secretly hidden from the Nazis while their parents and the rest of the village were massacred.  The son of one of the infant girls, CIA Agent Myk McGrath, has become the world’s most prolific agent.  Now he is on a frenetic search to catch a cunning group that has outsmarted the country’s highest intelligence agency and vanished from their watchful eye.  In the midst of Myk’s hunt, a defector arises whose allegiance is unknown, a defector with ties to Lidice.

China’s top physicist is snatched from his beach vacation and forced to replicate his breakthrough discovery in electromagnetic technology.  New York City awakes to a terrifying phenomenon: seventy percent of its electricity has been permanently wiped off the power grid. Myk is in a race against time to find who’s behind the attack and prevent an already fragile U.S. economy from turning into a calamity.

In his pursuit, Myk begins to piece together a lifelong enigma: why his mother and her twin sister abruptly ended their relationship at the time of his birth, and why his mother developed within him the skills that would make him the most prodigious agent the CIA has ever known.  The deeper he digs into exposing a devious conspiracy against the U.S., the more he uncovers the stunning truth about the secret lives of the twins from Lidice.
