Publisher's Summary

Long-buried secrets. A devastating global conspiracy. And only one man who can stop it: Navy SEAL James Reece. From the “seriously good” (Lee Child) #1 New York Times bestselling author, Jack Carr.

In 1980, a freshman congressman was gunned down in Rhode Island, sending shockwaves through Washington that are still reverberating over four decades later.

Now, with the world on the brink of war and a weakened United States facing rampant inflation, political division, and shocking assassinations, a secret cabal of global elites is ready to assume control. And with the world’s most dangerous man locked in solitary confinement, the conspirators believe the final obstacle to complete domination has been eliminated. They’re wrong.

From the firms of Wall Street to the corridors of power in Washington, DC, and Moscow, secrets from the past have the uncanny ability to rise to the surface in the present.

With the odds stacked against him, James Reece is on a mission generations in the making. Unfortunately for his enemies, the former SEAL is not concerned with odds. He is on the warpath. And when James Reece picks up his tomahawk and sniper rifle, no one is out of range.

From “a master novelist” (Ballistic Magazine), “quintessential hero James Reece is exactly what’s needed in today’s chaotic political milieu” (K.J. Howe, author of Skyjack).

Doesn’t Disappoint

If you liked the last 5, you’ll like this one. I don’t mean that as a “more the same” in a boring way or anything. Jack Carr has a distinctive way he goes about writing a novel, and if you like it, well, this novel is Jack Carr all the way. Can’t wait to see where the story goes from here.

Absolutely Thrilling

I was ecstatic when I saw my pre-order had come in! The book DID NOT disappoint, well written, well thought out, and the best conclusion of all the loose threads floating under the storyline of the previous 5 books one could have dreamt of. Carr's ability to write modern-day reality into the fictional pages of a book always makes me smirk. It also makes you think, cannot wait for the next book!

Incredible as always

The moment Jack Carr releases a novel, I buy it and listen. Now I am going to re listen to the entire series in waiting for the next!

Is Marthas tap still running? (Chapter 30 :p)

Only The Dead. Is only the Best. Ever

Jack Carr. One of the few that has both the experiences and the literary chops to put it all together
