The board is set. The pieces are in place. There will be no stalemate in this endgame.

"Decisive Endgame" is the final novel in a five-book serial drama. Listeners are encouraged to begin the journey with "Justifiable Deceit" and enjoy the Tierra Campos Thrillers in the order they were written.

As the calendar marches toward the Electoral College vote that will solidify the cabal’s control, Tierra’s and Victoria’s ad-hoc alliance must roll the dice to stave off disaster. Everything will come down to one moment where the only possible result is checkmate. In a months-long struggle defined by countless moves and countermoves, which side will prevail when both sides play for keeps in the Decisive Endgame?

“True freedom is laying your king down before someone does it for you.”

The election is over, and the attempt to thwart the oncoming coup has failed. With the ringleader exposed as a powerful manipulator, the stakes are even higher. While the cabal has positioned itself to cement its stranglehold on the new president-elect, journalist Tierra Campos is left with one more daunting puzzle to solve—why she’s still alive.

With the transition beginning and the victor suffocating under the crushing weight of extortion, the online news organization Front Burner must again fight for its survival. Elements in the government are determined to silence while training their sights on another target—FBI agent and heroine Victoria Larsen, who has now been labeled a domestic terrorist and America’s most wanted fugitive.

When the noose tightens around Victoria as she uncovers concrete evidence of the plot, Tierra hatches a desperate, last-ditch plan to exploit the only crack in the powerful cabal’s armor. New friends, old enemies, and ardent adversaries must unite for a common purpose to expose the coup and save the presidency while not shattering the people’s confidence in their government.
