The Story

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-fiancée, 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.

Chapter Excerpt

There was a click somewhere up ahead, and Scot Harvath, who was on point, gave the silent command for his team to freeze.

The sound had been so faint that he couldn’t distinguish what it was. Had a twig been snapped? Had someone, somewhere out i­n the darkness, flipped off a weapon’s safety?

Ever since they had moved into the forest, he had wondered if they were stepping into a trap.

Half of his discomfort was because of the men they were hunting. The other half was because operating in Itbayat’s subtropical forest reminded him of jungle warfare. He hated jungle warfare. He had hated it as a SEAL, and he hated it even more now. It was hot, humid, and entirely too close for comfort. There were too many bugs, particularly mosquitoes, and the dense shrubs, vines, and ferns were a colossal pain in the ass to move through.

There was something ironic about having quit his job at a private intelligence agency that specialized in taking on the CIA’s most dangerous overflow assignments, only to return and be handed a jungle-style operation on Day One. He couldn’t tell if the powers that be at the Carlton Group were happy to see him back or trying to convince him he should have stayed away.
