Federal Tattoo

Eighty years from now, a stranger named Sam wanders onto the Stahl family farm and meets Clara Stahl, a beautiful young medical student. Although it is clear that underneath Sam's calm manner lies a tortured soul, Clara is immediately drawn to the handsome visitor. But is Sam's amnesia the result of a trauma, or is he merely trying to forget a past filled with regrets? As Clara and her family help Sam unravel the mysteries of his memory, a fierce U.S. Air Force colonel in a secret federal facility fears his career may be on the line after a prisoner escapes-and that prisoner is Sam.

The residents of the quiet family farm soon find themselves threatened by authority at the highest levels. The resulting confrontation could ultimately endanger the entire United States government.

In A Federal Tattoo, Clayton Farley takes us into a world at once sophisticated and archaic. As the lines between right and wrong become shockingly twisted, the ancient story of right versus might is dramatically played once again against the backdrop of a cold and unfeeling future.
