Part of Rogue Team International, book 4
First published 2025
Joe Ledger watches in horror as infected individuals transform themselves into walking weapons, entering crowded spaces to spread engineered diseases. A shadowy organization has breached the most protected biological research facilities in the world. Their agents carry deadly pathogens into shopping centers, airports, and schools while private military units prepare for a massive coordinated strike. Ledger and Rogue Team International must respond despite their wounds from a previous catastrophic mission that cost them dearly. Multiple enemy factions have united against them, launching attack after attack while innocent lives hang in the balance. Ledger struggles with overwhelming grief as he tries to uncover the true purpose behind this campaign of terror. He fights alongside his team, the brutal operatives of Arklight, and mysterious allies whose humanity remains questionable. The enemies seem to anticipate every move, leaving Ledger's forces outnumbered and outgunned. Time runs short as the conspiracy threatens to destroy not just America but the entire world.
