Black Force is dead. When the shadowy government division's chief operator used Jason King in Russia for her own personal vendetta, it cast far-reaching consequences throughout the secret world. King, Slater, and Isla are held prisoner onboard a US Navy supercarrier while their fate is determined-but they haven't escaped the madness yet. The Russian oligarchs involved in King's previous operation want him silenced, never able to disclose what he uncovered.

The Kamchatka Peninsula in the Russian Far East consists of desolate plains and inhospitable mountain ranges. In a dark corner of the barren land, a horrifying game takes place. Black Force operative Jason King arrives in the dead of night, determined to uncover why a party of international relief workers vanished from a rural village. Fearing the worst, he tracks them to an abandoned gold mine and uncovers a web of corruption deep below the volcanoes of Kamchatka.

One afternoon in Boston, everything changes: two abduction attempts on separate sides of the city. A van tries to snatch Tyrell, and two men approach Violetta and Junior in a public park. All at once, it's Code Red. King and Slater don't know who's targeting them, or why, but they have an endless list of enemies from decades spent eviscerating hostiles. It could be anyone. Whoever this rogue force is, they've found a way around every preventative measure. They've done what not even the government could do: tracked down Jason King and Will Slater.

It’s been months since King and Slater faced true physical adversity. Now, they’re back in the depths of hell. A botched attempt to seize control of the Presidency by a brainwashed intelligence asset leads to the exposure of King and Slater’s location. The shadow world from which they fled has them in their sights, and they’re furious. Going rogue is the gravest sin - wetwork operators aren't afforded the leniency of leaving whenever they please. Examples must be made. The hunters are unleashed.

Attempting to infiltrate a shadowy private military company, an old foe of Dante Jacoby's dies spectacularly in Saint Petersburg. The CIA asset takes a whole cadre of mercenaries with him to the grave. At risk of humiliation, the Kremlin prefers to suppress what happened rather than admit a sole U.S. operative slaughtered nearly a dozen of their own. Dante himself is oblivious. That is until he gets in a war of his own in sun-soaked Santa Cruz, aligning two separate worlds through sheer bad luck.

It starts the way it always does: with a desire to help. Dawn Cates, a retired schoolteacher from Millinocket, drinks her sorrows away at the local tavern. King recognizes her. He ran into her his first week in town, and he can’t shake the urge to ask what’s wrong. She watched her dog die in a hit-and-run, and she thinks she knows who did it, but she’s scared…of what? King’s not scared of much, and heads east to the coastal town of Lubec to smash heads together. But what he finds eclipses anything he could have imagined, a global operation so vast it defies belief.

After two months of relentless forward progress, Dante Jacoby has not only rebuilt his wildly popular Bay Area bar from scratch but expanded his operations with two brand-new venues in San Jose and Santa Cruz. Then, almost as soon as he has more money than he knows what to do with, he receives a message from a mysterious and powerful source: "Go. Be a vigilante. Consider yourself sanctioned for action."

Getting rich and unintentionally famous has its downsides. In Dante Jacoby's case, it's the beginning of a nightmare. After returning to San Francisco, a sorry-looking bank account forces him to take the plunge into entrepreneurship to fund his vigilantism. Thanks to wicked intelligence and a sickening work ethic, his novel spin on a nightlife venue takes off. Before he knows it, he's an overnight success story.

After a lifetime of raising hell, King uses earnings collected over a lengthy and chaotic career in government black-ops to purchase a mountaintop villa on the island of Corsica. He coasts through a peaceful existence as the owner of a seaside bar in the serene Bay of Calvi.... Then, after a sudden and violent chain of events, he resurfaces on the radar. His old unit - a clandestine special ops division known only as Black Force - deem him a danger to society, classifying his retirement as a colossal failure.

King has returned to Black Force, the special-ops division that shaped him into a one-man army. No sooner does he arrive than chaos unfolds. Two fellow operatives disappear on a routine surveillance mission in Zamalek, Cairo's most affluent district. As King battles through Egypt's dark underworld to locate them, he uncovers a revelation much more sinister than he ever expected....

It’s been a year of peace. Now it's over. A vicious and mysterious assassin surfaces in the tiny town of Millinocket, and there’s only one conceivable reason for their presence. As King and Slater watch those they know added to the body count, their world begins to shift: their desire for a normal existence is irreconcilable with the brutal reality of their lives. They’re in Groundhog Day, hunted again and again by malevolent forces, and something has to change. Decisions must be made, changes that will shape their lives forever.

Moving north to wintry Maine, King and Slater get three days of rest before they’re barreling straight back to Boston with their hearts in their throats. Something they left behind has blown up in their faces, and suddenly they’re vulnerable, exposed. It’s all different now; the game has changed. In the shocking aftermath, it’s on them to pick up the pieces, and before long it dawns on them that they’ll need to make a choice. They’re caught between a rock and a hard place. To keep their families safe, they’ll need to do what they swore they’d never do.

Dante Jacoby is a slave to the trappings of the modern world. Twenty-six years old and hopelessly addicted to booze, cigarettes, and procrastination, he’s squandered every ounce of his potential. His corporate raider father, Dorian, reaches the end of his tether and cuts Dante off as heir to the Jacoby family fortune. His mother, Fiona, is smarter than her husband: she hasn’t spoken to Dante in months. But Dante’s no victim. He knows he brought this on himself.
