Billions are spent in hastily written defense contracts, but embarrassing blunders continue. As alliances and the balance of power shift, Maj. Boyd Chailland goes undercover in the Pentagon to find the mole leaking secrets; but it isn't a mole.

Then Chailland's family disappears and he must confront his own dark past.

There is a super amount of action in this thriller. The characters are true to their roles, especially the main antagonist. He is pure evil and wields a horrific amount of trouble for the good guys. He seems to be unstoppable and appears to gain a huge amount of delight in payback to those he deems his enemies. There are others in his gang who are just as bad if not worse. I found it all to be really scary.
The plot is filled with an amazing amount of skill in various areas. The technicality of how it all comes down is obviously written with a lot of knowledge or determined research. I am nowhere near understanding all of it, but it sounded plausible enough to get me turning the pages.
I would recommend this novel to any who enjoy the genre. I am becoming a huge fan of this kind of adventure.
