THE THRILLING INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON FROM THE FORMER INTELLIGENCE AGENT
THE GAME IS ON. AND IT'S ABOUT TO GET DEADLY...
DGSE operative Alec de Payns is an undercover agent in the elite Y Division of France's famed intelligence service. When a routine mission goes fatally wrong, Alec is forced to confront the unthinkable: his team has been betrayed by one of their own.
Tasked with investigating a covert bio-weapons facility in Pakistan, Alec must race to uncover its secrets to save the lives of his loved ones. But with a traitor in the ranks, deceit following his every move, it's not just Alec in the firing line. It's the potential destruction of Paris itself...
