Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor thrills with his new summer blockbuster starring Scot Harvath.
A devastating series of bombings tears through Bangkok. Scores of American citizens are dead. The attacks send shock waves around the world.
As global assistance pours into Thailand-including the FBI's famed Evidence Response Team-the president of the United States quietly prepares a plan B: Scot Harvath, America's top spy, trained to operate outside the law and probe the dark corners others can't...or won't.
But the bomber Harvath is pursuing isn't a terrorist. He's something far more dangerous-one of ours.
Meanwhile, in Washington, a former United States Marine is being hunted-and he has no idea why. Desperate for answers, he turns to the one person he still trusts-his ex-fiancee, a rising star in the White House. The problem is, she isn't sure she can trust him.
As Harvath closes in on the bomber, a devastating truth begins to emerge. China has quietly deployed its most elite intelligence unit to Thailand. Their objective: to ignite chaos, trigger a military coup, and seize control of a narrow but critical piece of land, one that could give Beijing a decisive advantage.
If the plan succeeds, Beijing will secure a key gateway between two oceans, eroding American naval dominance and tipping the balance in any war between the world's great powers.
China will control the ultimate geopolitical choke point.
