The Order is based on the book The Silent Brotherhood by Kevin Flynn and Gary Gerhardt, which chronicles the escalating crimes of a white supremacist domestic terror group. The book details a series of violent bank robberies, counterfeiting operations, and armored car heists that terrorized communities throughout the Pacific Northwest in 1983. As baffled law enforcement agents scrambled for answers, a lone FBI agent stationed in the sleepy, picturesque town of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho came to believe the crimes were not the work of traditional, financially motivated criminals, but a group of dangerous domestic terrorists inspired by a radical, charismatic leader who are plotting a devastating war against the federal government of the United States.
Details on the other cast roles are being kept underwraps.
