Red Tide Rising

Red Tide Rising Talon Unit - Book Two By MJ Hawke The enemy has already breached the wire. Now, Australia's most elite black-ops unit must fight a war in the shadows-or lose everything. A critical undersea data cable is cut off the coast of Darwin, triggering a national security emergency. Talon Unit is deployed to investigate-but what begins as sabotage spirals into a high-stakes game of espionage, betrayal, and digital warfare. Someone is siphoning AUKUS intelligence. Someone with insider access. Commander Nate Harwood leads his team into Southeast Asia, where cyberattacks, bioweapons, and mercenary forces converge. From Jakarta's criminal underworld to the jungle strongholds of a human trafficking empire, Talon must chase ghosts and decode a conspiracy that threatens to dismantle allied defences from the inside out. But trust is in short supply. Old wounds between tech genius Kieran "Torque" Knox and MI6 liaison Declan "Wraith" Maddox flare under pressure. Sniper Tony Rinoldi is haunted by a past operation gone sideways. And as the noose tightens, the unit faces a chilling truth: the real traitor may already be among them. Red Tide Rising is a razor-sharp military thriller packed with tactical realism, cutting-edge tech, and brutal action. MJ Hawke delivers a relentless story of loyalty, espionage, and the thin line between duty and survival. Perfect for fans of Tom Clancy, Mark Greaney, Jack Carr, and Lee Child.
