Ted Teagan is an Army Military Intelligence veteran, working as a college recruiter and part-time surveillance specialist for the NSA, living in Arizona, with no one knowing where he is or what he does on a daily basis. In the aftermath of 9-11 comes a new, heightened attention to the war on terror and the surveillance of all citizens. After contact is severed with the government, Ted decides to keep his skills sharp; he starts picking ordinary people to watch in the hope that, one day, he will get called back into the surveillance game. But when the people he is watching start to perish, who can he turn to? Is he innocent? If so, who would ever believe him? Ted spends his long days and lonely nights in "nowhere" Arizona and southern Nevada, weaving his way through a tangled web of deception and lies, trying to uncover Who's Watching the WATCHER?
