Part of Pike Logan, book 14
First published 2020
Pike Logan and Jennifer Cahill are preparing for a counter-terrorist operation in the triple frontier when an explosion rocks Charleston, South Carolina. The blast kills a friend and appears accidental to authorities, but Pike recognizes the attack was meant for him. When his Taskforce team goes silent in South America, Pike defies direct orders and travels to Brazil with Jennifer to find them. They discover highly trained Russian assassins operating in the region as part of a complex plot involving Brazilian politics and offshore oil field control. The Russians prove to be formidable opponents, matching the elite skills Pike's Taskforce has developed through years of combat operations. But the enemy made a critical error by targeting Pike's men, the only family he has left. With elite Israeli assassins as allies, Pike will break any rule and cross any line to bring his people home safely.
