Publisher's Synopsis
When American covert operative Chase Fulton's life is turned upside down with news almost too good to be true, everything he believes about his world changes in an instant, and the life he dedicated to serving his country and the preservation of freedom suddenly fades out of focus as a new reality becomes the center of his existence. But before the dream of his new life can materialize, one final mission demands his devotion like never before.
American hostages, including a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, have fallen into the hands of Los Toros, one of the world's most ruthless and violent drug cartels, and no one is dispatched to rescue the doomed victims. As the truth about why the hostages have been abandoned by their country reveals itself, an even more horrific reality looms on the horizon for Chase and his team of seasoned operatives. On the edge of the Mexican desert, just out of sight of the resort paradise of Cabo San Lucas, maniacal forces lurk not only in the shadows, but also boldly in the bright midday sun, unafraid of those who would dare try standing between them and the imminently condemned victims of their ferocious, bloodthirsty fury. Can Chase survive the mission he swears will be his last, or will he draw his final breath beneath the falling blade of the darkest enemy he's ever faced?
