A sinister group - code-named Zodiac - has launched devastating global attacks. Twelve targets across the world, 12 code-named missions. Operating distinct sleeper cells, they are the ultimate terrorist organisation, watching and waiting for a precise attack to activate the next group. It is a frightening and deadly efficient way to stay one step ahead. And cause the most chaos. For ex-CIA operative Jed Walker, chaos is his profession. On the outer, burned by his former agency, he is determined to clear his name.

The only thing certain is their intent to create a devastating global catastrophe. The US president has the power to enact the Internet Freedom Act—the “Kill Switch”—and turn off the Net, which will stop the attacks. But it’s not that simple.

When the hunters become the hunted, ex-CIA agent Jed Walker is the man you need. In 2011, Seal Team Six killed Osama Bin Laden.

It's 2005, and Jed Walker has just joined the CIA. As a 10-year veteran of Air Force Special Operations, Walker is used to being at the pointy end of things. But normally the front line is much further from home. Sent to New Orleans on the trail of Russians wanting to claim back what was stolen from them in Afghanistan, it doesn't take long for Walker to realise that in the murky world of espionage, the rules of war do not apply.

It’s 2005, New Orleans, pre-Katrina, and Jed Walker has just started at the CIA. He’s sent on a mission by Harold Richter, CIA field operations legend and trainer of agents provocateur. The task is a one-way ticket—survive and succeed at all costs—and Walker is an off-the-grid, solo, deniable asset.
