Together, the Three Wisemen, as they come to call themselves, and their foot soldiers, the activists, become an underground force to be reckoned with. A force the FBI intends to bust by sending in undercover agent Raider Kincaide, straight and homophobic but chosen because he’s one of the bureau’s best and also because he’s a muscular and athletic blond.
