There's a corporate cabal that wants to rule the world. Some might say it has been doing so for decades, by whatever means necessary. But they are no longer content to hide in the shadows. They want to become true masters. Jason Hunt knows nothing about that world. But when his wife becomes ill, he finds himself pitted against the cabal that might hold the key to her survival. To save her, he needs to embrace technology he doesn't understand....

Helen Chen had started to hope that she’d found peace. After fleeing New York, she’s settled in Hong Kong under a false name, found a job she loves, and even started to make new friends. But when an innocuous conversation makes her suspect her new boss, she can’t resist her nature and starts digging for truth. What she finds will change her life forever.

It's 2007, and the world is edging towards the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression. A secret international Corporate alliance, known as the cabal, is using the moment to spread its influence. Helen Chen and Andrew Hunt have little in common. She's a gray hat, and he's a senior CIA officer. But when Hunt is tasked to fight the cabal, and Chen becomes the alliance's latest target, they'll have to find a way to help each other or end up like everybody else who tried to stand up to the cabal--dead.

There's a corporate cabal that wants to rule the world. Some might say it has been doing it already for decades by whatever means necessary. But they are no longer content to hide in the shadows. They want to become true masters. Jason Hunt knows nothing about that world. But when his wife becomes ill, he finds himself pitted against the cabal that might hold the key to her survival. To save her, he needs to embrace technology he doesn't understand, take over a billion-dollar company, outsmart professional assassins, and land a contract with the DOD. But even that might not be enough.

The world is broken. While Jason Hunt continues to struggle with the implications of his actions, his nemesis has all but made up his mind. Alexander Engel doesn’t see himself as a villain. He sees himself as the world’s savior and is tired of playing in the shadows. He’s ready to seize power and will stop at nothing to get what he wants. He will raze cities if he has to. As unrest is spilling into the streets, Hunt and his allies keep finding themselves on the defensive. Facing increasingly long odds, sooner or later they’ll have to fight back to survive. But it may be already too late.

Black Arrow mercenaries are patrolling the streets unchallenged. The president is missing. The last bastion of Jason Hunt’s forces—the missile silo compound—is all but besieged and is on the brink of starvation. And hidden somewhere in the heart of the Sahara Desert is a secret factory that should cement Alexander Engel’s victory once it becomes operational. After getting blindsided by the new enemy, Mike Connelly finds himself in a dilemma. His duty tells him to look for the people he had been sworn to protect.

Alexander Engel is tightening the noose around the resistance. No longer concerned by the optics of his actions, he’s pressing his forces to finish the rebellion once and for all. But he’s not the only one taking his gloves off. As Max Schlager and Helen Chen go on a daring mission to even out the odds, Jason Hunt and his loyal crew prepare for the final showdown. With their backs against the wall, they must take a stand against the cabal and win the war. Or die trying.

An undercover CIA officer discovers that the company he is investigating produces an artificial intelligence product that manipulates the behavior of the general public, and he must prove it to the media or be killed by a powerful corporation that has its own military.
