Publisher's summary

Long-buried secrets. A devastating global conspiracy. And only one man who can stop it: Navy SEAL James Reece. From the “seriously good” (Lee Child) #1 New York Times bestselling author, Jack Carr.

In 1980, a freshman congressman was gunned down in Rhode Island, sending shockwaves through Washington that are still reverberating over four decades later.

Now, with the world on the brink of war and a weakened United States facing rampant inflation, political division, and shocking assassinations, a secret cabal of global elites is ready to assume control. And with the world’s most dangerous man locked in solitary confinement, the conspirators believe the final obstacle to complete domination has been eliminated. They’re wrong.

From the firms of Wall Street to the corridors of power in Washington, DC, and Moscow, secrets from the past have the uncanny ability to rise to the surface in the present.

With the odds stacked against him, James Reece is on a mission generations in the making. Unfortunately for his enemies, the former SEAL is not concerned with odds. He is on the warpath. And when James Reece picks up his tomahawk and sniper rifle, no one is out of range.

From “a master novelist” (Ballistic Magazine), “quintessential hero James Reece is exactly what’s needed in today’s chaotic political milieu” (K.J. Howe, author of Skyjack).

Great book as always

A little to close to home concerning the state of our country though…. I am nervous already about our future as a country, hope none of this comes true! But thanks for being bold enough to keep it “true”

Timely!

Carr managed to put Reece in the midst of current events. Fact or fiction? Whether or not the “Collective” is a real entity, the story depicts many sad truths about the deteriorating situation in which we live. Trust no one!
Now I think I’ll listen to this one again!

Wow!!

The market may be saturated with espionage and navy seal books, but somehow the storytelling and the compelling narrative suck you in from beginning to end. The way Jack car mixes up his writing, and turns quotes from favorite authors is enjoyable.

Doesn’t disappoint.

Amazing how the author can stay consistent with the character and the theme after fully satisfying his mission in past books.

Another enjoyable book

Great performance by Ray Porter and Carr is getting better and better. The story in this one is well paced and grounded, never going into the far fetched realm.

Edge of the seat excellence

This next Story in the series is excellent while also being disturbing. Ray Porter’s narration is spot on
