New York Times bestseller ⢠The thrilling true story of one man who risked his life to infiltrate the most dangerous neo-Nazi group in the United States, an âurgent and exciting look into the life of an FBI undercover agentâ (Joseph D. Pistone, New York Times bestselling author) by âone of the top undercover agents in the Bureauâ (Joaquin âJackâ Garcia, retired FBI agent and New York Times bestselling author).
When Scott Payne was growing up, an â80s kid with a big attitude and a taste for sleeveless shirts, he could never have envisioned where heâd find himself on Halloween night 2019. Having transformed into âPale Horseâ and infiltrated the nationâs most dangerous, fastest-growing white supremacy group, The Base, he was huddled with a cell of neo-Nazis in the backwoods of Georgia as they slaughtered a goat and drank its blood in a ritual sacrifice.
A decorated agent dubbed the âHillbilly Donnie Brasco,â Payne takes readers along with him on some of the most terrifying and riskiest assignments in FBI history. He went deep undercover with the lethal Outlaw Motorcycle Club in Massachusetts; to the front lines of the opioid epidemic in Tennessee; and infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan in Alabama. Through it all, he stayed married to the love of his life, raised two girls, and spent his Sundays at church, sustained by family and faith.
Timely and unputdownable, Code Name: Pale Horse is a hard look at some of the most pressing threats facing America today. Honest and inspiring, itâs the story of a hero determined to take down a hateful armyâbefore the unthinkable could come to pass.
