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.

With their backs against the wall, they must take a stand against the cabal and win the war. Or die trying.

Until the nineteenth century, Islam was variously understood as a set of beliefs and practices. But after Muslims began to see their faith as an historical actor on the world stage, they needed to narrate Islam's birth anew as well as to imagine its possible death. Faisal Devji argues that this change, sparked by the crisis of Muslim sovereignty in the age of European empire, provided a way of thinking about agency in a global context: an Islam liberated from the authority of kings and clerics had the potential to represent the human race itself as a newly empirical reality.

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.

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.

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.

It's 2007, and the world is edging towards the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression.
