"Two weeks, two nuclear blasts. The world is careening straight toward the abyss, and Washington is powerless to stop it.
After an emergency mission deep into war-torn Georgia, the CIA's elite Prosecution Force has vanished without a trace. The chain of events leading to their disappearance and the detonation of a second nuclear weapon in two weeks remains a mystery. Langley is paralyzed, unable to inform a scrambling White House desperate to prevent global war.
Leaders from both China and Iran have fallen off the map, and Azerbaijan is facing down the barrel of a two-pronged invasion. It’s a tangled web no one in the free world can unravel.
But one man holds the answer to the riddle. Separated from his team, Rufus “Turk” Turkman knows the truth. The intelligence he holds may be enough to prepare America for the sucker-punch to come, but stranded in a war zone without communication equipment, Turk’s options are limited.
Even worse, Turk knows the location of his captured team. They’re in enemy hands and unlikely to survive. His choice is brutally simple: save his comrades or save his country.
The game is set, and the free world is barreling into a trap... with no idea of what's to come."

"Mason Sharpe has some lethal skills. In this little town, he’s going to need them.
On a dark Alabama highway, army veteran Mason Sharpe witnesses a terrible accident. As he fights to rescue a woman from the burning vehicle he notices one of her eyes is bright blue, the other deep brown. Then, she vanishes. Gone without a trace.

But Mason knows what he saw. His gut tells him something deeply sinister is going down, and Delia Crawford is somehow involved.
Why will none of the locals talk about Delia? Why is one mining company still turning big profits in a town crippled by the industry’s decline? And why is Mason being followed by two shady characters in a pitch black pickup truck?

Mason isn’t looking for a fight, but he’s not the kind to run from one either. He realizes there is only one way to save Jalen. Mason will confront the gang himself, and if they won’t back down, he’ll do what he does best – a terminal take down.
