In war-torn Syria, the lone survivor of a massacre is pulled from beneath a pile of bodies. She is given one instruction: “Find Jed Walker.” Ex-CIA, Walker is a man who thought he was long out of the game. Discovering a terror outfit is smuggling people from the Middle East into the United States, he is drawn back in. At first Walker thinks these human traffickers are driven purely by profit and greed, but soon learns their motives are much worse—and they have ties to the highest levels of power.

The world is under cyber attack. The secretive terror outfit known as Zodiac is preparing to unleash chaos. The options for the hackers are endless. From massive data breaches, takedowns of critical infrastructure, and commandeering military hardware, nothing networked is safe. Knowing where they will strike is half the battle. 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.

A sinister group—code-named Zodiac—has launched a series of devastating global attacks. Twelve targets across the world, twelve code-named missions. Operating distinct sleeper cells, they are the ultimate terrorist organization, watching and waiting for a precise moment to activate the next group. It’s 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. Burned by his former agency, he is determined to clear his name. Stopping Zodiac is the only way.

Jed Walker, ex-CIA, is an outsider back in the game. He’s been chasing down a sinister group code-named Zodiac that the big guns—MI5, CIA, the Pentagon—have failed to eradicate. But as Walker follows the trail of bodies, uncovering secrets and making connections he’s not supposed to make, he finds the answers are closer to home than he ever imagined. Revenge is the obvious motive—but nothing is ever that simple in love and war. Can Walker find who’s responsible before the body count grows? Can he stop another terror attack before more innocents suffer?
