Jericho's Fall by Stephen L. Carter

Jericho is the retired Director of Central Intelligence and Secretary of Defense and White House National Security Advisor and a Wall Street titan at a private equity firm.
A intense plot builds layer upon layer. Jericho is a master at the "wisp" (false trail.)
A trusted lover from Jericho's past is drawn into a hunt for an explosive secret that intelligence operatives and financial wizards are also in a race to find. When Jericho does fall, the secret will keep his family and lover safe and reveal many illegal acts in the past.
I read Jericho's Fall in one sitting. I want to read more of Stephen L. Carter!!!
What is fact??? What is a "wisp" ????
