Paperback. Andrew Cahill is found alone in a Utah canyon with no identification and no memory of how he arrived. He knows only one word: Bob. By the time federal agents begin asking questions, it is clear that Andrew's disappearance is not random. Someone needed the vault codes he carries, and they needed him to provide them without understanding what he was doing.The investigation that follows pulls at a thread that runs deeper than anyone expects. At its center is Andrew's father, John, a geologist who spent a decade managing a secret rather than exposing it-a shadow inventory of surplus uranium accumulated during the Eisenhower years, now decades removed from its original justification and days away from its first illegal sale. John did not build the conspiracy. He inherited it. And like every Cahill before him, he chose containment over disclosure.As FBI agent Laura Bennett maps the network from the outside-logistics companies, foreign capital, a private equity structure with roots older than anyone currently involved-Andrew works from the inside, tracing his own signatures through years of paperwork he approved without understanding what it supported. The case his family built is also the case against them.Containment is a literary thriller about what it costs to hold a dangerous truth in place, and what it costs when the structure finally fails. It is a novel about fathers and sons, about the difference between not knowing and not asking, and about the geological instinct to read what the surface conceals. The truth, in the end, does not stay buried. It finds you. This item is printed on demand.

Acerca del autor
Edward C. Distel writes fiction shaped by memory, exile, war, and the quiet lives history often forgets. Raised in a multilingual household and deeply influenced by the immigrant experience, his work explores loyalty, identity, survival, and the stories people carry in silence.
Drawn to both novels and short fiction, Distel believes the most powerful stories are often the most intimate. His writing blends literary realism with psychological depth, creating characters marked as much by what they cannot say as by what they do.
He prefers to let his characters speak for themselves.
These are his first published works, though far from his only stories.
