About This Audiobook
Former Navy SEAL John Dempsey has traded his military uniform for the shadowy world of Ember, America's most classified counterterrorism organization. When a deadly adversary from his past emerges after a decade underground, Dempsey must navigate a complex web of international threats that span from Middle Eastern deserts to Central American jungles. As his elite team races to prevent a series of coordinated attacks on American soil, Dempsey discovers that his transition from decorated soldier to covert operative demands sacrifices he never anticipated.
