After a terrorist bombing in the former
Soviet Union kills two Americans, the CIA brings independent contractor Avery
back into the fold.
He jumps at the chance to return to the
field, because among the casualties is a friend and a former teammate. His
search for answers will put him in pursuit of an old enemy and pit him against
a dangerous new opponent, an elusive and mysterious spetsnaz-trained operator who
is every bit as determined and lethal as Avery.
From the frontlines of the ongoing conflict
in eastern Ukraine, to the remote mountains of the Caucasus, and to a high
altitude parachute jump from 35,000 feet, Avery will work alongside CIA
paramilitary operators, mercenaries, and Special Forces soldiers to wage a
campaign of shadow warfare against a hostile power eager to destabilize a strategically
important Western ally.
