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.

Jack makes you think

Excellent writer. Phenomenal narrator. Real world experience and a knack for story telling. Definitely makes you wonder about what’s actually happening in our world. Well done Jacky-boy. Well done.

I liked the references to real world events. The narrator did a great job too.

An awesome continuation

An awesome continuation of James Reese’s story. The ending got me but in the back of my mind I felt like I had a suspicion. Thank you Jack Carr for the books and thank you for your service. 👊🏻🇺🇸
