Description
A global crisis starts with a single kill. Only Rake Ozenna is in a position to stop it.
Major Rake Ozenna's latest assignment sounds simple: infiltrate the Kato family -- Japan's most powerful crime empire -- and use their estranged daughter, Sara Kato, to expose a growing threat to international security.
Then a message flashes on Rake's secure phone from Sara: Rake Ozenna. Help me.
A man is found with his throat cut at a Peace Institute on the remote Åland Islands and all the evidence has been carefully planted to point to Sara.
Sent undercover to the snowbound international conference, Rake must reach Sara before Finnish authorities -- or the Kato syndicate -- silence her for good.
But the deeper he digs, the clearer the truth becomes: the murder is only the opening move in a far more dangerous plan.
As a violent blizzard seals off the islands, Rake is cut off from backup, surrounded by enemies he can't identify, and forced to protect the woman at the centre of it all -- a woman who may be the key to stopping a global catastrophe...
If he fails, the world will pay the price.
A relentless and high-stakes thriller, full of action and heart-pounding suspense. Fans of Lee Child, Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, Mark Greaney, and Mark Dawson won't want to miss this.
MEET THE HERO
Rake Ozenna is a seasoned captain in the Alaska Army National Guard. Born and raised on the remote Diomede Islands in the Bering Strait, with a population of just eighty, Rake's heart remains with his icy homeland. With years of military experience, he's calm under pressure and fiercely loyal to those he loves. A man of few words, he often surprises people with his dry sense of humor and an almost uncanny ability to read the weather and his surroundings.
