In this book we meet for the first time Shaw, the enigmatic intelligence agent who works for a company the world knows nothing about, bringing the wicked to justice.A shocking video featuring a tortured man is released worldwide on the Internet. The homemade video is shaky and grainy, but its message is shocking. It spreads around the world like wildfire and then is picked up by newspapers - the story is on everyone's lips. It is the beginning of a controversy.
What no one knows is that it was a hoax, a propaganda story started by one man, Nicolas Creel, a superrich arms dealer, who decides the best way to boost his business is to start another cold war.
Enter Shaw...
Shaw has spent 6 years risking life and limb for the agency. Now he wants to retire, get married and settle down. But his superior has made it very clear - no one retires from this line of work, they only die.
Shaw badly wants out of this dangerous job, but when his fiance and everyone she works with is massacred in their office building, because they are starting to investigate the people behind all the controversy in the news of the world, Shaw is determined to hunt down and kill the person or persons behind all these killings.
With the help of Katie James, a washed out, alcoholic news journalist who has hit rock bottom and is desperately trying to claw her way back up to the top via a good story, they embark on a breakneck race to find the people behind the conspiracy, and prevent World War III from breaking out, and to just stay alive along the way!
A really good, gripping, fast paced read.
Happy reading!
