Summary

Retired agent Wayne Manis reviews his investigation of “The Order,” a white supremacist terrorist group, also known as the Silent Brotherhood, that operated in the Pacific Northwest in the early to mid-1980s. The pursuit of these terrorists consumed five years of Wayne Manis’s career as he tracked their assassinations, armored car robberies, bombings and counterfeiting activities. The hunt came to an end when Wayne and other SWAT Agents surrounded the terrorist on a remote Whidbey Island and killed the leader in a fiery machine gun battle. At the time, it was the nation's largest domestic terrorism case prior to the Oklahoma City bombing.
