Navy didn't know if Min Gyu deserved to be saved. She didn't know if Min Gyu could dismantle North Korea's nuclear weapons program. All Navy knew was right now she felt like she was drowning. If Jackson died, it would be her fault. Just like Sara and Moss almost dying had been her fault.

Jackson knew he couldn't be saved.
The soldiers were ten feet away now. Jackson wondered whether he should turn his gun on himself, and in that second a thousand hands pressed down and held him to the floor.
A North Korean defector and cyber warrior, Min Gyu, decides to use Navy Trent as his ticket out of the backwards regime. Min Gyu promises he can destroy North Korea's nuclear weapons program. But only if Jackson retrieves him. Navy must decide how much she's willing to risk for a stranger, and how many of her principles she's willing to sacrifice to bring Jackson home.
Humans, Practicing is the third book in the Navy Trent series. Navy is a master hacker, currently working for the CIA.
She find her picture, encoded, in a file that was not supposed to be in. It was sent by a North Korean Cyber analyst. He wants to defect to the USA and in exchange will bring down the North Korean rocket system.
No one can be sure, one what side he really is.
He sends the message, but only agree to communicate with Navy. She is on thin ice at the agency as it is. There are some agents who still hold a grudge against her, and some that accuse her of sending the message herself. But the opportunity is too big to pass. His condition, Jackson needs to come.
And then it all goes wrong.
It's a very suspenseful story, the kind that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The story starts slow, but once the action starts (about the third way into the book), it doesn't stop. :) There are so many twists and turns, until the very end.
I loved it, this would make one hell of a movie. :)
