Cal Bennett never asked for trouble. He just wants to survive Dreswick's smog-choked streets one day at a time. But then he rescues a brilliant corporate scientist… and wakes up with an experimental neural implant, a target on his back, and a voice in his head that won't stop asking questions. The AI doesn't just think. It upgrades itself—with a knack for impeccably bad timing—and every time it does, it becomes something neither of them expected.

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.
