Deadheat: Deadlock

Two years after the emotionally charged events of Deadlock and the bittersweet farewell shared between Dick and Yuto, Yuto has been released from the confines of Schelger Prison. He is unexpectedly headhunted by the FBI, where he eagerly takes on the challenge of following the evidence in hopes of locating and apprehending the dangerously elusive terrorist mastermind known only as Corvus—Nathan. Yuto’s ultimate motivation is to have a chance to be reunited with Dick Burnford once again. During the course of his investigation into Corvus’s shadowy past, Yuto manages to find a new ally and partner in the laid-back and openly gay Rob, a skilled criminologist from the University of California who possesses valuable connections to one of Corvus’s followers. This unlikely duo embarks on an intense journey, following Corvus’s trail across the country, which ultimately and unexpectedly leads Yuto to Dick, who is still deeply entrenched in his work for the CIA as an undercover operative, with one goal in mind; to kill Corvus/Nathan for the murder of his former comrade and lover. As Yuto and Dick's paths collide, both men race against the clock to reach Corvus first.
