A rumor, a remote cabin in Norway, and an American intelligence operative charged with stopping the next world war before it begins - Scot Harvath's mission is one of the deadliest he has ever undertaken. Across Europe, a secret organization has begun attacking diplomats.
Reminiscent of the Red Brigades and the Red Army Faction of the 1970's, these faceless terrorists appear to have the same goals. But in the shadow realm of international espionage, looks are always deceptive. As a prelude to war, one of the world's most dangerous intelligence agencies has been charged with preparing the battlefield. Their job - to demoralize the enemy and win the conflict before it even begins.
Dispatched to Europe, Scot Harvath and his team have been tasked with a critical assignment - to do whatever it takes to keep America and her NATO allies from being dragged into war.
