A covert mission in Peru is derailed by a renegade general’s devastating threat in the New York Times–bestselling author’s acclaimed technothriller series.
Ex-Marine sniper Charlie Dean and his top-secret NSA team have their orders: Infiltrate the highest stratum of Peruvian political power to stop a general from acing an election. All Dean has to do is find a way inside an impenetrable bank vault protected by armed guards round the clock—it’s all in a day’s work for the men and women of Deep Black.
But things get complicated when Dean and company discover the general’s second plot. The military madman’s ruse—a nuclear weapon he claims is in the hands of Marxist guerillas, a bomb that only he can rescue . . . and control.
When the general and his plot are exposed, the NSA concludes the greatest threat is over. But in fact, it’s only just beginning . . .
